<p>An input filter is provided for a superheterodyne receiver for image frequency suppression and a method for operating a superheterodyne receiver. The input filter for a superheterodyne receiver includes a first filter circuit with bandpass characteristics and a center frequency that can be preset as a function of a desired receive frequency, the circuit having a varactor diode and a first filter inductor that are connected in parallel and form a parallel-resonant circuit, wherein the center frequency can be preset by application of a control voltage to the varactor diode, and a second filter circuit with band stop characteristics that includes the varactor diode and a second filter inductor, these being connected in series and forming a series-resonant circuit, and that has a maximum attenuation in the vicinity of an image frequency belonging to the desired receive frequency. The input filter may be used in, for example, DAB receivers.</p> |
