1、An Embedded System to Correct In-Phase and Quadrature-Phase Imbalance for WCDMA Direct Conversion Receiver,Ye Shi Helsinkin University of TechnologySupervisor:Professor Sven-Gustav Hggman11,November 2003,Contents,Motivations Thesis Objectives Direct Conversion Receivers & I/Q imbalances Estimating &

2、 Compensating I/Q Imbalances Tests Conclusions,Motivations,Direct Conversion Receivers (DCR) are used in WCDMA base stations DCR is sensitive to I/Q imbalances Develop an embedded system to estimate and compensate the I/Q imbalances,Thesis Objectives,Study WCDMA base station Study software and hardw

3、are of transceiver ( transmitter and receiver) Develop an embedded system to estimate and compensate I/Q imbalances,DCR,Advantages: Not many components, easier to integrate Low power consumptionDisadvantages: DC-offset High sensitivity not easily available Accurate I/Q phase and amplitude balance re

4、quired,Most Common I/Q Imbalances-1,Amplitude imbalance Since I and Q are two separate signals, each one is created and amplified independently. Inequality of this gain between the I and Q branches results in amplitude imbalance. A perfect signal will have a uniform constellation that is perfectly s

5、ymmetric about the origin. I/Q amplitude imbalance is indicated when the constellation is not “square,“ i.e., when the Q-axis height does not equal the I-axis width, as seen in the Figure.,Most Common I/Q Imbalances-2,Quadrature error If the phase shift between the RF LO signals that mix with the I

6、and Q base band signal at the modulator is not 90 degrees, a quadrature error occurs. The constellation of the signal is distorted, which may cause error in the interpretation of the recovered symbols. The quadrature errors result in a “tipped“ or skewed constellation.,Most Common I/Q Imbalances-3,D

7、elays in the I or Q branches Delays can be caused by the modulator or by the filtersI/Q without dalay Q delayed relative to I,2,Most Common I/Q Imbalances-4,DC-offset DC offsets may be introduced in the I and Q branches. They may be added in the amplifiers in the I and Q branches. DC offset errors r
