摘要:
The present invention is directed toward the transmission subsystem of a multi-mode, multi-band communication system that can transmit and/or receive one or more information signals on one or more transmission frequencies using one or more modulation schemes. According to embodiments of the invention, the up-conversion section is implemented using a universal frequency translator (UFT).
摘要:
A method and system for directly down-converting FM signals to demodulated baseband information signals that can be used to directly down-convert analog FM signals and digital FM signals to demodulated baseband information signals. In an embodiment, the method includes aliasing an FM signal at an aliasing rate substantially equal to the frequency of the FM signal or substantially equal to a sub-harmonic thereof; adjusting the aliasing rate in accordance with frequency changes on the FM signal to maintain the aliasing rate substantially equal to the frequency of the FM signal, and outputting a demodulated baseband information signal. The method optionally includes compensating for phase delays and/or other characteristics of the loop in order to maintain bandwidth and stability for the loop.
