ABSTRACT:
Apparatus, and a method for its use, for linearly phase-modulating a microwave signal with only minimal accompanying amplitude modulation. An incoming signal is divided into two components, one of which is shifted by ninety degrees from the other, plus or minus a small offset phase angle selected to minimize amplitude variations in an output signal. The component with the offset phase angle is amplitude modulated, then recombined with the other component to provide the desired phase-modulated output signal. When the offset phase angle and the nominal amplitude of the amplitude-modulated component are appropriately selected, phase modulation of the output signal is substantially linearly related to the amplitude modulation of the offset input signal, and amplitude modulation of the output signal is minimized.
