Transmitter Architectures and Power Amplifier

In Chapter 1 we focused on the blocks enclosed by dotted lines in Figure 1.1. They are the modulator, demodulator, and channel part of the communication system. We now redraw Figure 1.1 as Figure 9.1, with the transmitter back end enclosed by dotted lines.
