Background
A zero intermediate frequency (Zero Intermediate Frequency, ZIF) transmitter is a transmitter that moves high frequency baseband signals to radio frequencies, reducing power consumption and reducing the chance of external interference to the radio frequency signals relative to a superheterodyne transmitter. However, after the zero intermediate frequency transmitter directly converts the radio frequency signal to zero frequency, the signal has IQ imbalance problems, for example: amplitude imbalance, phase imbalance, filtering imbalance, delay imbalance, etc., severely deteriorate the quality of the transmitted waveform. When the bandwidth of the transmitter is narrow, the amplitude imbalance and the phase imbalance are main contributors of the IQ imbalance, and as the bandwidth of the transmitter increases, the filtering imbalance and the delay imbalance rapidly rise to become main contributors of the IQ imbalance, so how to remove the IQ imbalance, thereby ensuring that the quality of the transmitted waveform becomes a key point.
In practical applications, the IQ imbalance compensation method generally includes the following steps, namely, weighting and summing the transmit waveform and its conjugate waveform in the digital domain, and compensating only for the amplitude imbalance and the phase imbalance: 2. a complex time domain filter system is adopted to compensate the filtering errors of the two IQ paths, and the filtering errors are compensated by the thought of the weighted sum of the I path and the Q path.
