    Abstract: A portable computing device includes an FEM, a SAW-less receiver, a SAW-less transmitter, and a baseband processing unit. The FEM isolates one or more outbound RF signals from one or more inbound RF signals. The SAW-less receiver converts the one or more inbound RF signals into one or more inbound intermediate frequency (IF) signals by frequency translating a baseband filter response to an IF filter response and/or an RF filter response. The SAW-less receiver filters the inbound RF signal(s) in accordance with the RF filter response and/or filters the inbound IF signal(s) in accordance with the IF filter response. The SAW-less receiver then converts the inbound IF signal(s) into inbound symbol stream(s). The SAW-less transmitter converts outbound symbol stream(s) into the outbound RF signal(s). The baseband processing unit converts outbound data into the outbound symbol stream(s) and convert the inbound symbol stream(s) into inbound data.

    Abstract: A SAW-less receiver includes an FEM interface module, an RF to IF receiver section, and a receiver IF to baseband section. The RF to IF receiver section includes inverter based LNA modules, a mixing module, and transimpedance amplifier modules. The inverter based LNA modules amplify inbound RF signal to produce a positive leg current RF signal and a negative leg current RF signal. The mixing module converts the positive and negative leg current RF signals into an in-phase (I) mixed current signal and a quadrature (Q) mixed current signal. The transimpedance amplifier modules convert the I mixed current signal into an I mixed voltage signal and the Q mixed current signal into a Q mixed voltage signal. The receiver IF to baseband section converts the I and Q mixed voltage signals into one or more inbound symbol streams.

    Abstract: A technique to remove second order and third order nonlinearity distortions caused by a blocker signal at an input of a radio receiver. An envelope detector is utilized at an input of the RF front-end of the receiver to obtain a magnitude of the overall signal. The output of the envelope detector is then processed at baseband to estimate coefficients that relate to the distortion. Once the coefficients are obtained, the coefficients are applied at an I/Q imbalance correction stage to also correct for the distortion by cancelling the distortion from the received signal.
