An SSB transmitter includes a digital-to-digital converter generating first and second real signal components as a function of a complex input signal supplied to the transmitter, and a digital Hilbert transformation module coupled with the digital-to-digital converter and operative to generate first and second transformed signals as a function of the first and second real signal components. The transmitter further includes first and second bit-stream generators operative to generate first and second analog signals as a function of the first and second transformed signals, respectively. The transmitter includes first and second amplifiers. The first amplifier is operative to generate a first amplified signal as a function of the first analog signal. The second amplifier is operative to generate a second amplified signal as a function of the second analog signal. An analog hybrid coupler is connected with the first and second amplifiers and operative to perform an analog Hilbert transformation.
