Definitions

  • the present invention relates to analog-to-digital converters of complex signals having two channels in quadrature. More particularly, the invention addresses the problem of symmetry in signal processing between the two channels in a complex bandpass converter.
  • analog-to-digital converters there exist so-called sigma-delta analog-to-digital converters. These converters present an oversampling frequency that is well above the Nyquist frequency of the input signal, and as a result they make it possible to obtain a large amount of resolution for relatively low cost.
  • Converters of that type also enable quantization noise to be rejected to outside the working frequency band of the output signal, which band possesses a center frequency f 0 .
  • quantization noise is controlled by the combined action of feedback loop- signals and a complex filter.
  • Bandpass sigma-delta converters can convert complex analog signals into complex digital signals. They then present two channels in quadrature, conventionally referenced I for in-phase and Q for quadrature.
  • Such converters present advantages over real signal converters in terms of stability and width of the passband.
  • Figure 1 shows a complex bandpass sigma-delta converter for converting a complex analog signal into a complex digital signal.
  • a converter comprises two channels in quadrature referenced I and Q. Each channel has an input 101, 102.
  • the incoming signal on the input 101, 102 is added by means of a respective adder 103, 104 to the feedback loop signal 114, 115.
  • the signal then passes through a complex filter 105. It is then processed by respective quantizers 106, 107 before being delivered on respective outputs 108, 109.
  • Each feedback loop includes at least one digital-to-analog converter 112, 113 for providing the feedback signal.
  • FIG. 2 is a graph plotting a curve 202 showing the shape of noise from a complex signal converter.
  • noise is rejected to outside the working frequency band 201 of center frequency f 0 , thereby enabling the signal/noise ratio to be improved, and as a result improving the performance of the converter.
  • the invention is based on the observation that the rejection of quantization noise to outside the working frequency band of the signal is very sensitive to the processing on the I and Q channels being symmetrical. Any asymmetry in signal processing between these tlwo channels leads to quantization noise being folded 'into the working frequency band of the signal output by the converter, and as a result considerably degrades the signal/noise ratio of the converter. Such asymmetry may relate to the phase of the signal or to gain.
  • symmetry and asymmetry are used below with reference to the symmetry or asymmetry on the I and Q channels that relates to gain.
  • a quantization noise signal is obtained at the output from the converter at the center frequency of the working signal, and of amplitude that is substantially proportional to the symmetry error between the I and Q channels.
  • US patent No. 6 329 939 proposes averaging symmetry errors by using a common integrator for integrating the incoming real and imaginary signals.
  • the common integrator is used in alternation on one channel and then on the other channel of the converter.
  • Such a converter consumes a large amount of time and energy for putting the common integrator back into the initial state on each change of channel.
  • the present invention seeks to mitigate those drawbacks.
  • the present invention provides a method of adjusting an analog-to-digital converter having two channels in quadrature, each having an associated input and output, for converting a complex analog input signal into a complex digital output signal in a working frequency band having a determined center frequency f 0 , each output being looped back to the associated input in such a manner as to form first and second feedback loops.
  • the method comprises the steps consisting in: • injecting a first reference signal into said first feedback loop and simultaneously a second reference signal into said second feedback loop, said first and second signals being synchronized to each other so as to form a complex signal centered on an image frequency of said determined center frequency;

  • the feedback signals in the feedback loops are encoded on a plurality of bits and control can be performed with relatively high precision.
  • the amplitude of the signal output in the working frequency band is substantially proportional to the symmetry error between the I and Q channels, as is described in the section below.
  • one or more electronic components are adjusted in order to reduce the amplitude of the signal in the working frequency band. This enables the asymmetry between the I and Q channels to be corrected.
  • the amplitude of the signal at the center frequency f 0 is reduced, that means that the quantization noise has been rejected to outside the working frequency band of the output signal, arid as a result the asymmetry between the I and Q channels has ' been corrected.
  • an embodiment of the present invention enables the channel symmetry of a bandpass analog-to-digital converter for complex signals to be adjusted before it is used in order to increase its signal-to-noise ratio, and thus improve its conversion performance on complex signals during normal operation.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant d'ajuster un numériseur (300) comprenant deux canaux en quadrature (I, Q) comportant chacun une entrée (101, 102) et une sortie (108, 109) associées, le numériseur étant conçu pour transformer un signal d'entrée analogique complexe en un signal de sortie numérique complexe dans une bande de fréquence utile ayant une fréquence centrale déterminée (f0), chaque sortie étant réinjectée dans ladite entrée associée de façon à former une première et une seconde boucle de rétroaction. Pour un signal d'entrée nul, un premier signal de référence est injecté dans la première boucle de rétroaction et, simultanément, un second signal de référence est injecté dans la seconde boucle de rétroaction, ces signaux étant synchronisés l'un par rapport à l'autre pour former un signal complexe centré sur une fréquence image de la fréquence centrale déterminée. Un signal de sortie à la fréquence centrale (f0) est ensuite détecté. Finalement, l'amplitude du signal détecté est réduite par ajustement d'un composant électronique (501) dans la première et/ou la seconde boucle de rétroaction.
