Abstract
The invention is a method to increase the effective bandwidth for a digital receiver system. Many applications needs wide instantaneous bandwidth, for example applications for mobile phone communication, electronic warfare and radio systems. The invention increase the bandwidth for a System given a certain analogue to digital conversion speed by making it possible to extract the true frequencies despite double sideband conversion.The solution is to split (S1) the RF input signal in two path, mixing (M1, M2) the signal in each path with an unique local oscillator, LO, frequency (01, 02) within the band of interest giving an IF frequency pair for each RF input. The RF signal in one path is attenuated (Al) giving an amplitude unbalance of the frequency pair. The signal processing determine after signal sampling if the signal falls within the lower or upper sideband by determining if the low amplitude are higher or lower in frequency compared to the high amplitude signal.
Description
Method to double the bandwidth in a digital receiver system by the use of fregueng andamplitude coding Background and problem descriptionThe invention is a method to increase the effective bandwidth for a digital receiver system.
Many applications needs wide instantaneous bandwidth, for example applications for mobilephone communication, electronic warfare and radio systems. The invention increase thebandwidth for a System given a certain analogue to digital conversion speed by making itpossible to extract the true frequencies despite double sideband conversion. TheShannon/Nyquist sampling theorem is usually applied to determine the possible bandwidth fora given sampling rate. Shannon/Nyquist state that the sampling speed needs to be at least equalto twice the bandwidth of the signal to be sampled to unambiguously determine the signal frequency content.
The invention gives more bandwidth than the Shannon/Nyquist criteria, effectively doubling thebandwidth, on the condition that the signals to be sampled not have a very wide instantaneous bandwidth.Figure description Figure 1 describes a block diagram of an example of system design Description of the invention With reference to figure 1: The input radio frequency, RF, signal is received from the antennaand passes the input stage. The input stage can be designed in various ways known to a personskilled in the art. The invention functions with different input stage designs. In figure 1 oneexample of input stage is drawn. lt has a bandpass filter (BP1), automatic gain control, AGC,attenuator (A1) and a low noise amplifier (G1). The signal then enters the frequency andamplitude coder which is the core of the invention. Here the RF signal path is splitted in two bythe use of a splitter (S1). The signal in each path is down converted to intermediate, IF,frequency by mixer M1 and M2 and the L0:s 01 and 02. 01 and 02 have different frequenciesand are placed within the band of interest, typically in the middle of the band. ln one of thepaths an extra attenuation is inserted in order to create an amplitude unbalance between thetwo IF frequencies created by the mixing. The signal in the two paths are summed in a powercombiner (S2) and the IF are low pass filtered and then enters the digital receiver device. Theanalog to digital converter, ADC, samples the signals in the first Nyquist zone. The spectrum arethen estimated in signal processing and the information which IF is low in amplitude carries information of the signal is above or below the L0 frequencies and hence the RF input signal real frequency can be extracted for frequencies up to twice the Shannon/Nyquist sampling limit.
When IF signal is at DC an ambiguity occurs and the amplitude of the signal can't be extracted properly. Here the system can report two frequencies of which one is the true frequency.
