Abstract: Embodiments of this disclosure may include a receiver with a reconfigurable processing path for different signal conditions. Such a receiver may reconfigure between a mixer-first configuration and an amplifier-first configuration. In the mixer-first configuration, an RF input signal is not passed through an LNA for amplification before processing the RF input signal for downconversion to baseband and eventual extraction of the information in the signal. In the amplifier-first configuration, an RF input signal is passed through an LNA for amplification before processing the RF input signal for downconversion to baseband and eventual extraction of the information in the signal. Reconfiguring the receiver between mixer-first and amplifier-first configurations may be performed based on detection of jammer signals and/or measurement of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

Abstract: Techniques for performing analog calibration of a receiver to optimize a second-order input intercept point (IIP2). In an aspect, a signal generator modeling an interferer is coupled to an adjustable input of a receiver, e.g., a gate bias voltage of a mixer. For example, the signal generator output may be a single-tone on-off keying (OOK) modulated signal. The mixer mixes the signal down to baseband, wherein an analog correlator correlates the down-converted signal with the known sequence of bits used to perform the OOK modulation. The analog correlation output is then provided to drive the bias voltage in the mixer, e.g., one or more gate voltages of transistors in the differential mixer, to optimize the overall receiver IIP2. Further aspects of the disclosure provide for calibrating receivers having multiple LNA's, and also dual or diversity receivers having multiple receive paths.
