Image reject mixer, circuit, and method for image rejection
InactiveUS6226509B1Easily signalImprove filtering effectModulation transference balanced arrangementsTransmissionIntermediate frequencyCarrier signal
To reduce the impact of image frequencies generated by mixing an incident carrier signal down to a relatively low intermediate frequency signal used in subsequent signal processing, a mixing frequency is selected such that the generated intermediate frequency signal has a frequency offset relative to DC that is substantially that of a single channel spacing between frequency adjacent incident carrier signals, as shown in FIG. 2. Image rejection is further improved through the integration of a current-driven polyphase filter (36) directly between an input stage (Q1 to Q4) and a mixer stage (Q5 to Q12) of an image reject mixer (FIG. 4) such as to mitigate quadrature divergence between separate in-phase and quadrature paths within the image reject mixer.
