Systems, devices, computer-implemented methods, and/or computer program products that facilitate low power, wideband multitone generation. In one example, a multitone generator device can comprise a controller operatively coupled to first and second digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The controller can apply different delays of a sampling signal to the first and second DACs to facilitate sideband suppression of signals output by the first and second DACs. One aspect of such a multitone generator device is that the multitone generator device can facilitate low power, wideband multitone generation.

An audio system includes a processor including an input configured to: receive a baseband audio signal and modulate the baseband audio signal to create a modulated audio signal comprising audio signal frequency components in a first frequency range; clip the modulated audio signal to create a clipped, modulated audio signal the clipped modulated audio signal comprising the audio signal frequency components in the first range and further comprising distortion frequency components outside the first frequency range. The system can further be configured to filter the clipped, modulated audio signal to remove frequency components outside the first frequency to remove distortion components outside that frequency range.

A system includes a Zero IF transmitter having a mixer and a programmable gain stage. The Zero IF transmitter also includes an intermediate stage between the mixer and the programmable gain stage, wherein the intermediate stage is configured to decouple the mixer and the programmable gain stage.

A method for generating a control signal, having at least one frequency component, for an acousto-optical element, from one frequency spectrum having the at least one frequency, or from multiple frequency spectra which together have the at least one frequency, includes the step of obtaining, from the one frequency spectrum or from the multiple frequency spectra, one transmit signal in the time domain in each case via an inverse Fourier transform. The one or the multiple transmit signals are modulated via a single-sideband modulation onto a carrier signal having a carrier frequency in order to obtain one modulated signal in each case. The control signal is obtained as a real part of the one modulated signal or as a consolidation of the real parts of the multiple modulated signals.
