Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of communication technology, and specifically to a method and apparatus for correcting transmit local oscillator leakage in zero intermediate frequency systems. Background Technology
[0002] Software-defined radio (SDR), as an emerging technology, has been widely applied in the field of wireless communication. Some fully integrated SDR RF transceiver chips adopt a zero-IF architecture, which has advantages in terms of cost, size, and power consumption. However, as the integration of zero-IF chips increases, some problems with this structure are becoming more prominent, one of which is the transmit local oscillator leakage caused by the coupling between the local oscillator signal and the front-end devices.
[0003] In zero-IF architectures, local oscillator leakage is unavoidable. It is very close to or even within the desired signal frequency band, making it difficult or impossible to remove through filtering, as filtering also removes the desired signal. Uncorrected transmit local oscillator leakage will generate unwanted transmissions within the required transmission range, thereby degrading the signal-to-noise ratio of the transmitted signal, consuming transmit signal power, and reducing system performance.
[0004] Currently, the main approach to zero-IF local oscillator (LO) leakage is to estimate and compensate for transmitter LO leakage using the feedback path. This method estimates and corrects transmitter LO leakage by measuring the DC component in the receiving path, measuring the phase difference between the received LO signal and the LO signal from the zero-IF receiver, and filtering the LO harmonics generated by the nonlinear mixer. This method can achieve initial and tracking correction of transmitter LO leakage with very good correction accuracy. However, this method is complex in analyzing the gain attenuation and phase deviation between the zero-IF receiver and the zero-IF transmitter, requiring significant time and hardware resources.

[0054] Currently, the main approach to zero-IF local oscillator (LO) leakage is to estimate and compensate for transmitter LO leakage using the feedback path. This method estimates and corrects transmitter LO leakage by measuring the DC component in the receiving path, measuring the phase difference between the received LO signal and the receiver LO signal, and filtering the LO harmonics generated by the nonlinear mixer. This method can achieve initial and tracking correction of transmitter LO leakage with very good correction accuracy. However, this method is complex in analyzing gain attenuation and phase deviation between the receiving and transmitting links, requiring significant time and hardware resources.
[0055] To address the local oscillator leakage problem at the transmitter end of zero-IF transceivers, this invention provides a correction algorithm based on existing technology. This algorithm accurately estimates the amplitude attenuation parameter α and phase deviation parameter between the transmitter and receiver by applying a strong DC signal to the transmitter's I-channel signal. Then, the local oscillator leakage values of the I and Q transmitters are calculated, and finally, a negative local oscillator leakage value is input at the transmitter to complete the correction of the local oscillator leakage at the transmitter.
[0056] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic block diagram illustrating a transmit local oscillator leakage correction method for a zero-IF system, as an exemplary embodiment of this application. The correction method is used in a zero-IF transceiver. Figure 1 As shown, the correction method includes steps S110-S140:

[0081]
[0082] Step S140: A third DC bias signal, which is opposite to the second DC bias signal, is superimposed on the zero-IF transmitter to complete the correction of the transmission local oscillator leakage.
[0083] After obtaining I T (n) and Q T After specifying the value of (n), a negative bias signal, -I, is sent at the transmitter.

[0084] In one embodiment, before acquiring the first positive signal and the first negative signal, the circuit is initialized so that the baseband digital module of the transmitter does not transmit any valid signal.
[0085] This invention accurately estimates the amplitude attenuation parameter α and phase deviation parameter between the transmitter and receiver by applying a strong DC signal to the I-channel signal of the transmitter. Then, the local oscillator leakage values of the I and Q transmitters are calculated, and finally, a negative local oscillator leakage value is input at the transmitter to complete the correction of the local oscillator leakage at the transmitter.
[0086] This invention optimizes existing technologies by using a simpler algorithm to solve the transmit local oscillator leakage problem in zero-IF transceivers, thereby optimizing timing and simplifying the circuit. It also saves time and hardware resources and can be used for initialization and tracking correction of transmit local oscillator leakage.

The data selector includes a first operating state and a second operating state. When the data selector is in the first operating state, it outputs a first positive signal, and when the data selector is in the second operating state, it outputs a first negative signal. A filter is used to filter out the harmonic components of the first positive signal and the first negative signal.
