Abstract

A modulator (radio unit, modulation method) for reducing DC offset and an error of a comparator with a simple structure for accurately compensating a mismatch between an amplitude and a phase of an IQ signal. A modulation signal generated by supplying a test signal to an orthogonal modulator is envelope-detected, and a control part (14) derives an adjustment value and a compensation value based on determination results obtained by further comparing and determining the detection results. Based on the derived compensation value, a means (17) estimates the DC offset and the IQ mismatch of the orthogonal modulator. The test signal includes a first set containing a first test signal (I1, Q1) and a second test signal (I2, Q2) having a predetermined relation with the first test signal, and a second set with in-phase and orthogonal components having a predetermined relation with the first set. The control part (14) acquires the compensation value based on a first adjustment value and a second adjustment value respectively derived corresponding to the first set and the second set.

Description

technical field [0001] (About the related application) [0002] The present invention claims priority from Japanese Patent Application No. 2007-181019 (filed on Jul. 10, 2007 ), the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [0003] The present invention relates to a frequency conversion device or a transmission unit for communication accompanied by frequency conversion. Background technique [0004] In a quadrature modulator and a wireless transmission device using the quadrature modulator, suppression of carrier leakage and prevention of deterioration of modulation accuracy are necessary to ensure communication quality and comply with legal regulations. However, in recent years, the required performance level has increased with the speeding up of communications, but the performance issues mentioned at the beginning are conversely due to the limitation of the circuit structure caused by the direct conversion of the architecture and the reduction of the...
