Abstract

One example embodiment provides a system, apparatus, and method for using polynomial models in tone calibration for quadrature error correction in I/Q receivers. In one example embodiment, method for calibrating an I/Q receiver is provided and includes receiving a first mismatch parameter indicating a mismatch between I and Q channels of the I/Q receiver; and estimating a second mismatch parameter from the first mismatch parameter using a polynomial model.

Description

[0001] priority information [0002] This application claims priority to Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61 / 798,197, filed March 15, 2013, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates generally to in-phase and quadrature (I / Q) receiver signal processing, and more particularly to an apparatus, method and system for calibrating gain and phase imbalance in an I / Q receiver. Background technique [0004] Quadrature modulation is a technique used to transmit communication signals. In quadrature modulation, the transmitter transmits data on both the in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) channels simultaneously. Each of the I and Q channels carries a separate data stream and is phase shifted 90 degrees relative to each other on the carrier frequency. In an I / Q receiver, the I and Q channel signals are received at the carrier frequency, down converted and demodulated to recover the data from the individ...
