Abstract
An ultra-wide band frequency modulator is disclosed. The frequency modulator includes a direct modulation phase lock loop that receives a small component. The frequency modulator also includes a delay module that produces a plurality of delay lines. The frequency modulator further includes an edge selector that receives a large component and the plurality of delay lines.
Claims25
An ultra-wide band frequency modulator, comprising:
- a direct modulation phase lock loop that receives a small component of modulation data;
- a delay module that comprises a plurality of delay lines;
- and
- an edge selector that receives a large component of the modulation data and a plurality of delayed signals over the plurality of delay lines.
