Real-time blocker-adaptive broadband wireless receiver for low-power operation under co-existence in 5G and beyond

摘要

A receiver system includes a blocker detector circuit configured to receive a radio frequency (RF) input signal and detect an existence of a blocker therein, and further configured to output a blocker detection signal indicative of the existence of the blocker. The receiver system further includes a configurable receiver circuit configured to receive the RF input signal and the blocker detection signal, and selectively configure the configurable receiver circuit between a first mode wherein the configurable receiver circuit exhibits first linearity characteristics, and a second mode wherein the configurable receiver circuit exhibits second, different linearity characteristics based on the blocker detection signal.
