Patent attributes
A transmitter device is switchably operable in a digital IQ mode (DIQM) of operation and a polar mode (PM) of operation. The device has a switch logic processor that determines an attribute of operation of the transmitter device. When a first condition of the attribute is met, the switch is to switch to or remain in the PM, and when a second condition of the attribute is met, the switch is to switch to or remain in the DIQM. The attribute may be: a modulation bandwidth to be used during a transmission time slot, whether a transmission is to be a non-contiguous single-carrier transmission or a non-contiguous multiple-carrier transmission, a contiguous single-carrier transmission or a contiguous multiple-carrier transmission, whether a low or high EVM mode transmission is to be used during a transmission time period, whether an LTE, a 5G, or a Wi-Fi mode transmission is to be used, among others.
