Complementary signal mixing |
摘要 |
A method of performing complementary mixing may include performing an exclusive OR (XOR) function with respect to an I-channel symbol based on an oscillator signal to produce an I-channel output signal with bits that alternate between the I-channel symbol and a complement of the I-channel symbol in response to the oscillator signal rising and falling. The method may also include performing the XOR function with respect to a Q-channel symbol based on the oscillator signal to produce a Q-channel output signal with bits that alternate between the Q-channel symbol and a complement of the Q-channel symbol in response to the oscillator signal. Further, the method may include combining the I-channel output signal and the Q-channel output signal based on adding operations performed with respect to an I-channel extra bit signal, a Q-channel extra bit signal, the I-channel output signal, and the Q-channel output signal to generate a complementary mixed signal. |

1. A system configured to perform complementary signal mixing, the system comprising:
a complement generation module configured to:
receive an oscillator signal and a digital baseband I-channel signal that includes an I-channel symbol, the plurality of I-channel gates configured to perform an exclusive OR (XOR) function with respect to the I-channel symbol and the oscillator signal such that bits of an I-channel output signal that is based on an output of the plurality of I-channel logic gates alternate between the I-channel symbol and a complement of the I-channel symbol in response to the oscillator signal rising and falling;receive the oscillator signal and a digital baseband Q-channel signal that includes a Q-channel symbol, the plurality of Q-channel gates configured to perform the XOR function with respect to the Q-channel symbol and the oscillator signal such that bits of a Q-channel output signal that is based on an output of the plurality of Q-channel logic gates alternate between the Q-channel symbol and a complement of the Q-channel symbol in response to the oscillator signal rising and falling; and a combining module configured to combine the I-channel output signal and the Q-channel output signal based on adding operations performed with respect to an I-channel extra bit signal, a Q-channel extra bit signal, the I-channel output signal, and the Q-channel output signal to generate a complementary mixed signal having a frequency based on a clock frequency of the oscillator signal and including information included in the I-channel symbol and the Q-channel symbol. |
