    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for calibrating IQ mismatch to ensure that an in-phase oscillating signal and a quadrature-phase oscillating signal are orthogonal to each other. The apparatus includes a mixer for mixing the in-phase oscillating signal with the quadrature-phase oscillating signal to generate an output signal, a control module for determining a control signal according to a low-frequency component of the output signal, and a phase adjusting module for adjusting the phase of a specific oscillating signal to ensure that the in-phase oscillating signal and the quadrature-phase oscillating signal are orthogonal to each other. The specific oscillating signal may be the in-phase or the quadrature-phase oscillating signal. The apparatus does not require a digital signal-processing unit to perform complex calculations nor requires additional oscillating sources for calibration. Hence, the circuit design is much simplified, and the consumption of system resources is significantly reduced.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for interference cancellation is provided to cancel the interference such as echo and cross-talk received by a receiver of a communication system. The apparatus includes a digital cancellation signal generator, a first canceller, and a second canceller. The digital cancellation signal generator can generate a digital cancellation signal, which includes a first and a second portion and represents an interference signal within a received signal. The first canceller can perform an analog cancellation on the received signal to output a partially-interference-canceled received signal according to the first portion of the digital cancellation signal. The second canceller can perform a digital cancellation on the partially-interference-canceled received signal according to the second portion of the digital cancellation signal.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for synchronizing sampling frequencies of a receiver and a transmitter of a multi-carrier communication system is provided. The receiver includes an estimator for estimating a frequency offset by employing an additional angle rotation of a received signal in frequency domain. The apparatus includes a compensation loop filter for generating a first output in response to a frequency offset compensation, an adder for adding the estimated frequency offset and the first output to generate a second output, and a loop filter for generating frequency offset compensation according to the second output. The method repeatedly applies the apparatus to generate frequency offset compensation, and then feeds it back to an oscillator to compensate the sampling frequency of the receiver. The apparatus and method can also be applied to a communication system with a carrier frequency offset.
