Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] direct conversion compensation

> [ I/Q compensation ] There's some discussion in Razavi's "RF Microelectronics", section 5.2.2, and Kenington's "Software Defined Radio", section 5.3.1.1. The distinction you mention between DC and AC might come from this LO self-mixing business, a nonlinear effect, and indeed only at DC since

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] direct conversion compensation

2007-12-09 Thread Peter Monta
For example, if I have a 6 MHz bandwidth that I direct convert to baseband can I tune a narrow band DDC (say 30 kHz) around that bandwidth without the performance degradation? If you tune the DDC to, say, +500 kHz, then the output of the DDC will be contaminated with a small amount of signal
