摘要:
A homodyne radio receiver apparatus receives radio frequency signal bursts containing a number of symbols and generates digital samples of at least a complex base band signal (I and Q) of each signal burst. A DC compensator comprises an average calculator (8,8′), which determines an average DC-level of said samples, and a signed square sum calculator (9,9′), which calculates a signed square sum of a plurality of said samples and weights the square sum by a compensation factor. Correction means (10,10′) subtracts the square sum from an output of said average calculator means for forming the DC-level estimate.
摘要:
A radio receiver and method is provided that effectively compensates for an undesirable DC offset in a digital section of the radio receiver by preloading a filter with an average DC offset before filtering a signal within the filter. More specifically, the radio receiver includes an antenna for receiving a radio signal, and an analog section for demodulating the received radio signal into at least one baseband signal. The radio receiver also includes an analog-to-digital section for converting the at least one baseband signal into at least one digital baseband signal. The radio receiver further includes a preloading system for calculating an average DC offset using a predetermined number of symbols from the at least one digital baseband signal and for preloading a filter with the calculated average DC offset prior to filtering the at least one digital baseband signal in the filter.
