  • Patent number: 6631265
    Abstract: A signal having a substantially uniform spectral distribution, e.g., a flat noise signal such as a signal ground, is provided at the input of a bandpass filter such as an IF filter of a receiver circuit, to thereby produce an output signal at the output of the bandpass filter. The output signal is processed in a limiter to produce a limited signal. An average frequency of the limited signal is determined, and the bandpass filter is adjusted based on the determined average frequency. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the bandpass filter comprises a Gm-C filter having a transconductance, and the filter is adjusted by adjusting the transconductance of the Gm-C filter based on the determined average frequency. According to another aspect of the present invention, a desired center frequency for the bandpass filter is identified. A resolution and a desired confidence interval are also identified.

  • Patent number: 6195399
    Abstract: A wideband radio receiver provides a complex baseband signal by normalizing an IF signal using a limiting amplifier. The normalized IF signal is applied to a complex sampling circuit to provide normalized I and Q components. The limiting amplifier provides an RSSI signal representing the received signal amplitude. The RSSI signal, which is sampled at the same rate as the normalized IF signal, is combined with the normalized I and Q components, to provide I and Q components of the baseband signal.
