摘要:
A modulation identification device can be used for detecting the modulation type of a wirelessly transmitted and modulated RF signal without a-priori information on the kind of modulation used. The modulation identification device (1) comprises a n-port junction (17), n being an integer equal to or larger than three. The n-port junction (17) is supplied with the modulated RF signal (2) and a second RF signal (3) from a local oscillator. The n-port junction (17) outputs at least one third RF signal to at least one power detector (18). A signal processing unit (6) processes the power detected output of the n-port junction (17) to generate at least one flag (10) indicating the identified modulation type.

The present invention relates to a method and a device for the I/Q demodulation of modulated RF signals. The I/Q demodulator (60) has a first input for the RF signal (61) to be demodulated and a second input for a RF signal (62) originating from a local oscillator (20). The demodulator (60) combines the two RF signals (61,62) to generate three output signals supplied to three power detectors. In a combination unit (70) the three power signals of the power detectors are merged in two signal branches wherein after passing an A/D converting (72) and digital processing unit (73) one signal is the I component and the other one is the Q component of the received modulated RF signal (61).
