An RF signal reception device including: a transposition device of signals of frequency fRF to a first intermediate frequency IF1<fRF; a first bandpass filter centered on IF1; a sampler at a frequency fs<IF1; a second discrete-time filter centered on a second intermediate frequency IF2=α·fs / M+fs / (M·n); a decimation device of a factor M; an analog-digital convertor to operate at a frequency fs / M; where α, n and M are strictly positive real numbers chosen such that: α<fs / (2·BWch·M), and BWch / 2<fs / M·n), with BWch: bandwidth of a channel of the received RF signals.

A novel and useful high-order discrete-time charge rotating (CR) infinite impulse response (IIR) low pass filter is presented. The filter utilizes history capacitor arrays incorporating banks of capacitors. A linear interpolation technique is used in the IIR filter with second order antialiasing filtering, whose transfer function is sinc(x)2 per stage. It also uses a gm cell, rather than operational amplifiers, and is thus compatible with digital nanoscale technology. A 7th-order charge-sampling discrete time filter is disclosed. The order of the filter is easily extendable to higher orders. The charge rotating filter is process scalable with Moore's law and amenable to digital nanoscale CMOS technology. Bandwidth of the filter is precise and robust to PVT variation. The filter exhibits very low power consumption per filter pole, low input-referred noise, wide tuning range, excellent linearity and low area per minimum bandwidth and filter pole.
