CHANGING TRANSMITTER LOCAL OSCILLATOR FREQUENCY IN CARRIER AGGREGATION

摘要

Embodiments provide a transmitter and a method for transmitting data via a combination of a first signal modulated at a first carrier frequency, and a second signal modulated at a second carrier frequency, different to the first carrier frequency. In one embodiment the transmitter includes a local oscillator and is configured to adaptively configure the local oscillator to operate at a first local oscillator frequency and an alternative local oscillator frequency, different to the first frequency, in dependence on a required signal strength of the first signal relative to a required signal strength of the second signal.
