In some embodiments, the plurality of baseband circuits 122-I and 122-Q may be implemented by filter circuits.

In this way, the processing circuit 142 can be configured to generate a plurality of reference coefficients x1And y1Calculating a plurality of compensation coefficients xtAnd ytAnd based on a plurality of reference coefficients x2And y2Calculating a plurality of compensation coefficients xrAnd yr. In addition, the reference coefficient generating circuit 141 is further used to calculate the reference coefficient x1And y1Or reference coefficient x2And y2And then outputs a control signal VC to adjust the setting mode of the switching circuit 130.
In some embodiments, the reference coefficient generation circuit 141 may be implemented by referring to the specification of the spectrum analysis circuit (spectral analysis circuit) and the correction coefficient calculation unit (correction coefficient calculation unit) of the related case (U.S. patent application No. US 14/724,781), so that the reference coefficient generation circuit 141 may generate the reference coefficient x1And y1And a reference coefficient x2And y2And will not be described herein. The above is merely exemplary, and other various circuits and/or algorithms for correcting the mismatch between the in-phase and quadrature signal paths are within the scope of the present invention.

The computing circuit 150-T is coupled to the processing circuit 142 to receive the plurality of compensation coefficients xtAnd yt. The computing circuit 150-T is coupled to the paths TX-I and TX-Q and is configured to generate a plurality of compensation coefficients xtAnd ytThe mismatch between the paths TX-I and TX-Q of the transmitter 110 is corrected. The calculation circuit 150-R is coupled to the processing circuit 142 to receive the plurality of compensation coefficients xrAnd yr.

The description will be described with reference to fig. 2, 3A and 3B in the following paragraphs.
Refer to fig. 2. FIG. 2 is a schematic representation of some embodiments according to the inventionA schematic diagram of the correction circuit 150 as shown in fig. 1 is shown. As shown in FIG. 2, the computing circuit 150-T includes a multiplier T1, a multiplier T2, and an adder T3. The multiplier T1 is used for calculating a compensation coefficient xtAnd the input signal IT-I generates the correction signal SC1 to the DAC 111-I of FIG. 1 for subsequent processing. The multiplier T2 is used for calculating a compensation coefficient ytAnd the input signal IT-I generates the correction signal SC 2. The adder T3 is used for generating the correction signal SC3 according to the input signal IT-Q and the correction signal SC2, and outputting the correction signal SC3 to the DAC 111-Q of FIG. 1 for subsequent processing. Equivalently, the mismatch between paths TX-I and TX-Q is compensated for after processing by computational circuitry 150-T.
Furthermore, the calculation circuit 150-R includes a multiplier R1, a multiplier R2, and an adder R3. The multiplier R1 is coupled to the ADC121-I and is used for calculating a compensation coefficient xrAnd the output of ADC121-I generates the correction signal SC 4.

Equivalently, the mismatch between paths RX-I and RX-Q is compensated for after processing by computational circuit 150-R.
The following paragraphs will describe embodiments of the processing circuit 142 of fig. 1, but the invention is not limited thereto. In some related art discussions, if the gain mismatch and phase mismatch (e.g., gain/phase mismatch between TX-I and TX-Q, or gain/phase mismatch between RX-I and RX-Q) are known, the compensation factor X (e.g., X in FIG. 2) is knowntOr xr) Can be derived as X ═ 1/((1+ G) × (p)), and the compensation coefficient Y (e.g. Y of fig. 2)tOr yr) One can derive Y ═ tan (P), where G is the gain mismatch and P is the phase mismatch. For example, when the input signals IT-I and IT-Q of FIG. 2 are (1+ G) cos (ω t + P), respectivelyt) And sin (ω t), the corresponding compensation coefficient xtAnd yt1/((1+ G) × cos (P)) and tan (P), respectively. It should be noted that the mismatch due to the present invention is in the fundamental frequency path-whereas the mismatch in U.S. patent application No. US 14/724,781Is provided in a mixer (mixer) so that Y of the present invention is different from Y of US patent application No. US 14/724,781 by a negative sign. Although differing by a negative sign, since the correction coefficient calculation unit in some embodiments of U.S. patent application No. US 14/724,781 calculates X and Y with respect to the output of the spectrum analysis circuit, the reference coefficient generation circuit 141 can be realized by the correction coefficient calculation unit and the spectrum analysis circuit.
Thus, for the architecture of FIG. 2, the compensation factor xt、yt、xrAnd yrCan be derived as the following equations (1) - (4) where the gain mismatch between paths TX-I and TX-Q is GtAnd the phase mismatch therebetween is Pt. The gain mismatch between paths RX-I and RX-Q is GrAnd the phase mismatch therebetween is Pr
