  • Patent number: 8238469
    Abstract: A radio frequency transmission module is adapted to generate a first signal to be transmitted and to convert the signal to a radio frequency carrier for its radio transmission, in an operational phase, and is adapted to generate a second signal and to convert the second signal to the radio frequency carrier, in a calibration phase. The module includes a calibration unit having a subsampler adapted to subsample the second converted signal and a calculation unit adapted to calculate Fourier Transform coefficients representative of the signal delivered by the subsampler, for the purposes of processing the first signal to be transmitted, in the operational phase, as a function of at least some of the Fourier coefficients calculated in the calibration phase.

  • Patent number: 7962949
    Abstract: A dual-conversion tuner firstly upconverts so as to place itself outside the receive band and then downconverts with zero intermediate frequency. A filter of the surface acoustic wave type is disposed between the two frequency transposition stages of the tuner. After baseband filtering, the signals are digitized then processed in a digital block comprising a channel decoding module. With the exception of the surface acoustic wave filter, the components are entirely embodied in integrated fashion.

  • Patent number: 7796197
    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a dual-conversion tuner, firstly upconverting so as to place a signal outside the reception band, then downconverting with zero intermediate frequency. A bulk acoustic wave type filter is calibrated in such a way as to accurately determine its central frequency. This filter is positioned between the two frequency transposition stages of the tuner. After baseband filtering, the signals are digitized then processed in a digital block BNM which includes a channel decoding module.

  • Patent number: 7474693
    Abstract: An input/output terminal receives a multi-channel analog signal within a predetermined frequency band, and transmits a single-channel analog signal within this frequency band. A tuning module has a reception channel based upon a two-stage down conversion to baseband, and is connected between the input/output terminal and an analog-to-digital conversion stage. A transmission channel based upon a two-stage up conversion is connected between a digital-to-analog conversion stage and the input/output terminal. The two channels include a common filter of the bulk acoustic wave type or of the surface acoustic wave type between the two frequency transposition stages of the two channels. A digital reception unit is connected to the output of the analog-to-digital conversion stage, and a digital transmission unit is connected to the input of the digital-to-analog conversion stage.

  • Patent number: 7406304
    Abstract: An integrated superheterodyne dual-conversion tuner upconverts a signal so as to place it outside a reception band, and then downconverts the signal with a non-zero intermediate frequency. A first filter of the bulk acoustic wave type is positioned between the up and down conversion and is calibrated in such a way as to accurately determine its central frequency. A second filter of a microelectromechanical type receives the downconverted signal and is calibrated in such a way as to accurately determine its central frequency.
