The present invention relates to a polar modulation apparatus and method, in which a polar-modulated signal is generated based on separately processed phase modulation (PM) and amplitude modulation (AM) components of an input signal. An amplified polar modulated output signal is generated in accordance with the phase modulation and amplitude modulation components by using a differential power amplifier circuitry(30) and supplying an amplified phase modulation component to a differential input of the differential power amplifier circuitry(30). A bias input of the differential power amplifier circuitry(30) is controlled based on the amplitude modulation component, so as to modulate a common-mode current of the differential power amplifier circuitry(30). Thereby, a new concept of a polar modulator with static DC-DC converter and power and/or efficiency and/or linearity controlled output power amplifier can be achieved.
