Verfahren und Schaltung zum Reduktion von Lokaloszillatorstrahlung in einen Funksendeempfänger

摘要

A circuit and method for reducing local oscillator frequency transmission in a homodyne, or direct conversion, radio transceiver using I/Q modulation/demodulation minimizes local oscillator leakage to the antenna and its subsequent reception by the receiver by interfacing I/Q input signals to the modulator in a controlled manner so as to increase isolation during reception by presenting high impedance states to the I/Q modulator input terminals during reception thereby nulling the carrier during reception.
