Abstract: A first local oscillator generates a modulation signal of a predetermined frequency. A second local oscillator outputs a local oscillation signal frequency-modulated by using the modulation signal from the first local oscillator. A quadrature detection unit subjects an FM signal to quadrature detection by using the local oscillation signal output from the second local oscillator and outputs a base band signal. A first reduction unit and a second reduction unit reduce a direct current component contained in the base band signal. A correction unit restores the direct current component by correcting the base band signal such that the base band signal is centered around an origin of a polar coordinate system on an IQ plane. An FM detection unit subjects the corrected base band signal to FM detection and generates a detection signal.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for dynamical calibration of phase signals and/or amplitudes in a telecommunication system. Calibration of phases is a necessary measure to ensure proper phasing and, as a result, emission of correct beamforming patterns. Without correct phasing (and emission of correct beamforming patterns), performance of a telecommunication network may suffer and user satisfaction may decrease. However, calibration provides a period of time where service is not provided and should not be done too often as it will decrease service provided and, likely, satisfaction of service received if there are frequent periods of outages. By utilizing specific telecommunication metrics, such as temperature, performance, or error vector magnitude, necessary calibrations may be identified and evaluated such that a determination regarding an optimal calibration time is made to balance providing service and a period of service outage.
