An encoding modulation method and transmitter are described. The method includes: oversampling and noise-shaping received multi-bit data to obtain N bits of data; using the N bits of data as a lookup table address to obtain a PWM puke modulation signal; multiplexing synthetic orthogonal (IQ) complex data of the PWM pulse modulation signal to be real number signal data; and converting the multiplexed real number signal data to an analog signal for power amplification and output, N being an integer representing a smaller number of bits than the received multi-bit data.

A method for minimizing harmonic distortion and/or intermodulation distortion of a radiofrequency signal propagating in a radiofrequency circuit formed on a semiconductor substrate coated with an electrically insulating layer, wherein a curve representing the distortion as a function of a power of the input or output signal exhibits a trough around a given power (P.sub.Dip), the method comprises applying, between the radiofrequency circuit and the semiconductor substrate, an electrical potential difference (V.sub.GB) chosen so as to move the trough toward a given operating power of the radiofrequency circuit.
