  • Publication number: 20050100084
    Abstract: Methods and systems for processing a signal with a corresponding noise profile are disclosed. Aspects of the method may comprise analyzing spectral content of the noise profile. At least one noise harmonic within the signal may be filtered based on said analyzed spectral content. The filtered signal may be amplified. The noise profile may comprise a phase noise profile. The signal may comprise at least one of a sinusoidal signal and a noise signal. At least one filter coefficient that is used to filter the at least one noise harmonic may be determined. The filtering may comprise low pass filtering. The signal may be modulated prior to filtering. The amplifying may comprise buffering. A non-linearity characteristic of the signal may be determined and a noise harmonic may be low-pass filtered within the signal based on the determined non-linearity characteristic.
