SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO FREQUENCY SHIFT UNWANTED SIGNAL COMPONENTS

摘要

A transmission circuit includes a shift circuit, a second shift circuit, and a modulation circuit. The shift circuit is configured to select a shift amount according to shift parameters and to introduce the shift amount in a first direction into in phase and quadrature phase baseband signals. The second circuit is configured to selectively introduce the shift amount in a second direction into local oscillator signals. The modulation circuit is configured to modulate the shifted baseband signals onto the shifted local oscillator signals to generate a composite modulated output signal. Unwanted components of the output signal are shifted away from original or specified limits. Wanted components of the output signal are unshifted.
