Abstract:
Methods and systems for I/Q mismatch calibration and compensation for wideband communication receivers may comprise receiving a plurality of radio frequency (RF) channels, downconverting the received plurality of received RF channels to baseband frequencies, determining and removing average in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) gain and phase mismatch of the downconverted channels, determining a phase and amplitude tilt of the downconverted channels with removed average I and Q gain and phase mismatch, and compensating for said phase and amplitude tilt I and Q gain and phase mismatch of the downconverted channels. The determined phase tilt may be compensated utilizing a phase tilt correction filter, which may comprise one or more all-pass filters. The average I and Q gain and phase mismatch may be determined utilizing a blind source separation (BSS) estimation algorithm.
