    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a radio frequency receiver includes a quadrature mixer for converting radio frequency signals to baseband signals or intermediate frequency signals. The quadrature mixer includes an in-phase passive mixer and a quadrature-phase passive mixer. Each passive mixer includes a mixer core having a plurality of mixer input switch transistors and a plurality of output switch transistors connected to the mixer input switch transistors. Clock circuitry generates a first set of clock signals and a second set of clock signals. The first set of clock signals has a frequency twice that of the second set of clock signals. The first set of clock signals is arranged to drive the mixer input switch transistors and the second set of clock signals is arranged to drive the output switch transistors.

    Abstract: A tuning method and circuit for an LC tank resonant circuit, including an inductor and a variable capacitor, are described. In a tuning mode, an RF input signal is applied to an input port of the circuit, and the RF output signal is monitored as a variable capacitor control input is varied. A peak output is detected, and the corresponding variable capacitor control input is stored, and applied to the variable capacitor in an operating mode. In one embodiment, the variable capacitor control input is adjusted for delay in the peak detection process. In one embodiment, the variable capacitor comprises a coarse capacitor and a fine capacitor; the tuning procedure is repeated for each capacitor; and both coarse and fine variable capacitor control inputs are stored and applied to the respective capacitors in operating mode.

    Abstract: In one or more embodiments taught herein, a multi-band MIMO repeater is configured to translate normal wireless mobile bands into other frequency bands in the physical layer. An advantageous, multi-hop repeater chain includes two or more such repeaters, for propagating downlink signals from a base station, and for propagating uplink signals to the base station. Each such repeater may use paralleled homodyne structure transceivers for better SNR, spectrum combiners for uplink signal aggregation, spectrum separators for downlink signal de-aggregation, water mark signal inserters for optimization, and, among other things, spectrum analyzers for frequency band selection. In at least one such embodiment, a multi-hop repeater chain is configured for MIMO operation in an LTE Advanced or other MIMO network, to deliver high data rate over larger distances - e.g., further away from cell base stations.

    Abstract: A differential positive coefficient weighted quadrature modulator is actuated responsive to quadrature clock signals and positive digital modulation signals input to the modulator. The modulator includes an l-channel positive coefficient weighted modulator (PCWM) and a Q-channel PCWM. The l-channel PCWM has differential output nodes configured to output a differential l-channel signal responsive to the state of first and second positive digital modulation signals and first and second complimentary quadrature clock signals input to the l-channel PCWM. The Q-channel PCWM has differential output nodes configured to output a differential Q-channel signal responsive to the state of third and fourth positive digital modulation signals and third and fourth complimentary quadrature clock signals input to the Q-channel PCWM. The positive digital modulation signals input to the l-channel and Q-channel PCWMs have positive amplitude and the l-channel and Q-channel PCWMs conduct at approximately half clock cycle or less of the corresponding quadrature clock signals.
