Abstract:
Various embodiments of communication devices and associated methods for reducing I/Q impairments in signals used by the communication devices are described. A transmitter device 206 may perform filtering (or matrix multiplication) on digital I and Q signals to pre-correct them before converting them into analog I and Q signals. The pre-correction may pre-compensate for I/Q impairments which have not been introduced yet, but which will subsequently be introduced during digital to analog conversion, I/Q modulation, or other processing that occurs to produce a transmission signal from the original digital I and Q signals. A receiver device may receive a transmission signal, produce digital I and Q signals from it, and perform filtering on the digital I and Q signals to correct I/Q impairments at a plurality of frequency offsets.
