Abstract: A system of measuring and correcting for distortions in homodyne systems and a method for operating a data processing system to provide an estimate of distortions in homodyne systems are disclosed. The method for operating a data processing system to provide an estimate of a distortion introduced by a homodyne system when the homodyne system processes a time a multi-tone time domain input signal, x(t), to obtain a time domain output signal, y(t) includes receiving a frequency spectrum, X(f), of the multi-tone time domain input signal, x(t) and measuring an output frequency spectrum, Y(f), when the homodyne system operates on x(t). A plurality of parameters of a model that represents a linear frequency response of the homodyne system when operating on X(f) to arrive at Y(f) by fitting the model to Y(f) and X(f) is determined, and the model is applied to X(f) and Y(f) to estimate the distortions.

Abstract: A system and method for operating a data processing system to modify a time domain input signal to a signal generator to correct for distortions introduced by the signal generator are disclosed. The method includes receiving a target signal specifying a signal to be generated by the signal generator and initializing an input signal with the target signal, the method includes a) inputting the input signal to the signal generator to arrive at a signal generator output signal; b) measuring a frequency spectrum of the signal generator output signal with a test instrument; c) updating the input signal based on a comparison of said measured frequency spectrum and a frequency spectrum of target input signal; and d) repeating steps a)-c) until an exit condition is satisfied.
