Abstract: An apparatus comprising a local oscillator (LO) for driving a mixer, the LO being configured to oscillate at an oscillation frequency, and generate a first set of LO signals, wherein each of the first set of LO signals has a LO signal frequency equal to a first multiplication factor m multiplied by the oscillation frequency, the first multiplication factor m, being an integer greater than or equal to two, and each of the first set of LO signals is separated by adjacent LO signals by a phase difference equal to 360° divided by a first variable n, the first variable n being an integer that is greater than or equal to two.
