Abstract

The present invention relates to a highly integrated radio frequency transceiver. For small cells, transceivers demand high performance while maintaining system efficiency. The present disclosure describes a highly integrated cellular transceiver that offers such features by providing one or more digital functions on-chip, onto the same die in the cellular transceiver. Effectively, the scope and boundary of the cellular transceiver is expanded to move beyond the data converters of the transceiver to include a variety of digital functions, thus integrating more of the signal chain in the cellular transceiver. Integration can greatly reduce complexity for the baseband processing, lower the cost of the overall transceiver system, reduce power consumption, and at the same time, benefit from improvements on the digital functions through integration.
