摘要： An electronic device may include radar circuitry. Control circuitry may calibrate the radar circuitry using a multi-tone calibration signal. A first mixer may upconvert the calibration signal for transmission by a transmit antenna. A de-chirp mixer may mix the calibration signal output by the first mixer with the calibration signal as received by a receive antenna or loopback path to produce a baseband multi-tone calibration signal. The baseband signal will be offset from DC by the frequency gap. This may prevent DC noise or other system effects from interfering with the calibration signal. The control circuitry may sweep the first mixer over the radio frequencies of operation of the radar circuitry to estimate the power droop and phase shift of the radar circuitry based on baseband calibration signal. Distortion circuitry may distort transmit signals used in spatial ranging operations to invert the estimated power droop and phase shift.

摘要： Embodiments provide a pre-distortion circuit and apparatus, a method and computer program for pre-distorting, a transmitter, a radio transceiver, a communication device, a mobile transceiver, a base station transceiver and a storage. The pre-distortion circuit (10) is configured for a digital quadrature signal. The pre-distortion circuit (10) comprises a first input (12) for an inphase component of the quadrature signal and a second input (14) for a quadrature component of the quadrature signal. The pre-distortion circuit 10 comprises a signal processing circuit (16) configured to determine whether polarities of the inphase component and quadrature component are equal, and to determine pre-distortion coefficients based on the amplitude of the inphase component, the amplitude of the quadrature component, and based on whether the polarities are equal.

摘要： A method configured to clip an I signal and a Q signal according to a clipping boundary, includes receiving an I value and a Q value, wherein the I value and Q value define Cartesian coordinates of a data point being transmitted on the real and imaginary axes of the complex plane, respectively; determining a clipping error between the I value and the Q value and the clipping boundary; combining the clipping error with the I value to generate a clipped I value; combining the same clipping error with the Q value to generate a clipped Q value; and providing the clipped I value and the clipped Q value to a radio frequency digital-to-analog converter (RFDAC) in a transmit chain.
