Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for rejecting images in a receiver. The apparatus of the present invention relates to an apparatus for rejecting image signals in a receiver of a direct conversion structure and comprises a signal mismatch compensation unit configured to detect gain error and phase error between an In-phase (I) signal and a Quadrature (Q) signal received through the receiver, to reject image signals existing in the I and Q signals, and to output a result.
