A detector and digital DAC feedback loop cancels mixer LO leakage in real time, maintaining performance under temperature change.
Weighted I/Q DC coefficient correction uses spatial leakage factors and attenuator state to suppress LO leakage inside microwave chips.
Multiple receive chains split broadband signals into sub-bands, cutting converter size and power while preserving signal processing.
A variable intermediate frequency with dual tunable local oscillators improves image rejection, intermodulation handling, and wide-range receiver tuning.
Distinct IF and sampling frequency pairs keep ADC spurious overtones away from useful RF channels to preserve signal-to-noise ratio.
A directional protection element on the power detection line blocks controller noise from entering the receive path while preserving RF power feedback.
Chip harmonics can interfere with wireless communication; adjusting clock or spread-spectrum parameters reduces EMI without physical shielding.
Electromagnetic interference from chip harmonics can disrupt communication; this case adjusts harmonic parameters without costly shielding.
Dynamic local oscillator chain selection places spurious harmonics outside active radio bands, eliminating the need for additional filters and shielding.
Frequency mixing separates digital clock harmonics from analogue signal bands, minimizing spur interference and improving signal-to-noise ratios.
Auxiliary receiver downconverts RF signal to estimate transmit impairments for baseband correction.
A controller switches a wireline transmitter to suspended mode during wireless reception windows.
Distributed frequency synthesizers generate local oscillator signals at distinct frequencies to minimize mutual coupling in transceiver arrays.
Adjusting switch mixer duty cycle reduces second-order inter-modulation distortion in direct conversion receivers.
Tunable variable capacitors adjust isolation between adjacent I/O ports, reducing coupling interference in compact RF devices.
