Abstract:
Local oscillator (LO) leakage and Image are common and undesirable effects in typical transmitters. Typically, fairly complex hardware and algorithms are used to calibrate and reduce these impairments. A single transistor that draws essentially no dc current and occupies a very small area detects the LO leakage and Image signals. The single transistor operating as a square-law device is used to mix the signals at the input and output ports of a power amplifier. The mixed signal generated by the single transistor enables the simultaneous calibration of the LO leakage and Image Rejection.
Abstract:
LO leakage and Image are common and undesirable effects in typical transmitters. Typically, thirty complex hardware and algorithms are used to calibrate and reduce these two impairments. A single transistor that draws essentially no de current and occupies a very small area, is used to detect the LO leakage and Image Rejection signals. The single transistor operating as a square law device, is used to mix the signals at the input and output ports of the power amplifier (PA). The mixed signal generated by the single transistor enables the simultaneous calibration of the LO leakage and Image Rejection.
