A transmitter comprises functionality (101, 103) for generating a block of input modulation symbols for example from received data bits. An M-point discrete Fourier transform (105) is applied to the block of input modulation symbols resulting in a frequency domain symbol block. This block is fed to an N-point inverse discrete Fourier transform (105) (N>M) thereby generating a time domain transmit signal. In addition, the transmitter (200) comprises an inter-symbol processor (201) which determines inter-symbol values corresponding to inter-symbol times of the time domain transmit signal and an attenuation processor (203) which attenuates at least one of the input modulation symbols in response to the inter-symbol values. By attenuating selected input modulation symbol(s) a significantly reduced amplitude variation and specifically peak-to-average amplitude variation can be achieved.
