Process variation in the analog front-end of the receiver will cause mismatches in the components. Gain and phase mismatches between I and Q mixers are unavoidable. The capacitor mismatches in analog-to digital converters also cause this problem. I/Q imbalance problem causes finite rejection in the image frequency band, and the image interference will alias into the desired signal, severe distortion will occur. In this work, a novel and feasible I/Q imbalance compensation technique is proposed. A sign-sign LMS algorithm is used to detect the imbalance of the analog front-end. After that, two multipliers and a DDFS (Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer) are employed to perform high precision amplitude and phase imbalance compensation. In this work, the analog front end is simulated by Advanced Design System and the digital compensation architecture is simulated by Matlab Simulink. Simulation results show that this architecture can eliminate I/Q imbalance almost completely without disturb the desired signal. Comparisons between this algorithm and other techniques are also performed, which show that this work can provide better performance with less hardware complexity. Finally, this compensation system is implemented in an ALTERA FPGA(APEX20K1500E) and Analog Device 12-bits dual channel ADC (AD9238). Experiment results show that IRR as high as 63 dB is achieved, which provides sufficient image rejection in both 3GPPWCDMA and MCCDMA system. This algorithm makes low-IF receiver a more attractive candidate in modern receivers.Contents 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Motivation…………………………………………………1 1.2 Organization of The Thesis……………………………1 2 Receiver Architectures…………………………………3 2.1 General Considerations…………………………………3 2.1.1 Intermodulation and Circuit Linearity…………….3 2.1.2 Sensitivity and Noise Figure…………………………3 2.2 Receiver Architectures…………………………………7 2.2.1 Heterodyne Receivers……………………………………7 a Architecture………………………………………………7 b Problems of Heterodyne Receivers………………….9 2.2.2 Homodyne Receivers……………………………………10 a Architecture……………………………10 b Problems of Homodyne Receivers……10 2.2.3 Image Reject Receiver…………………13 2.2.4 Comparison………………………………20 3 OFDM System and Impacts of I/Q Imbalance…………23 3.1 OFDM Systems………………………………………………23 3.1.1 OFDM Basics………………………………………………23 3.1.2 Using IFFT to Generate Orthogonal Subcarriers…25 3.1.3 Guard Time and Cyclic Extension……………………26 3.2 Impacts of I/Q Imbalance in OFDM System…………27 3.2.1 Zero IF Receiver………………………………………27 3.2.2 Low-IF receiver…………………………………………31 4 Proposed Receiver Architecture………………………37 4.1 RF Module…………………………………………………37 4.2 IF Module…………………………………………………42 5 I/Q Imbalance Compensation in Low-IF Receivers…49 5.1 Key Idea of I/Q Imbalance Compensation……………49 5.2 Digital I/Q Imbalance Compensation Techniques…50 5.2.1 Using DDFS for I/Q Imbalance Compensation………50 5.2.2 Blind Image Interference Cancellation……………73 5.3 Comparison…………………………………………………78 6 Experiment Results……………………………………81 6.1 Experiment Result of DDFS phase tuning……………81 6.2 Experiment Result of Sign-Sign LMS Calibration…86 6.3 Experiment Result of ADC and FPGA…………………88 7 Conclusion………………………………………………95 Appendix A Photos of Experiment Equipments………………979555359 bytesapplication/pdfen-USI/Q不平衡低中頻式接收機直接數位頻率合成器direct digital frequemcy synthesizerI/Q imbalanceLow-IF receiver應用於多載波低中頻式接收機之數位式I/Q不平衡補償之研究Digital I/Q Imbalance Compensation Technique in Multicarrier Low-IF Receiverthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/58564/1/ntu-93-R91942095-1.pdf
