Hello Javier, the "slantedness" of the constant frequency tone (the fact that it's not a perfect circle) looks like quite a bit of IQ imbalance to me – how many samples are those? What frequency did you work with?
The other two graphs, based on the const freq graph, look familiar – one "swing" has about the shape of the const freq loop, and it slowly rotates – the effect of the frequency difference between transmitter and receiver. So, what worries me is the fact that your constant frequency plot doesn't have the same dimension in I and Q!
