Direct down conversion, and its companion, very low IF (VLIF) or near-zero IF, are approaches that have essentially changed the face of the receive chain in a mobile handset. For the designer, it is ...

Cellular operators have longed for the ability to deploy versatile wireless infrastructure that can be field programmed to serve a range of cellular services. Ultimately the wireless infrastructure ...

Also called a "tuned radio frequency" (TRF) receiver, it is a radio receiver that detects and demodulates the carrier signal broadcast by the station without using an intermediate frequency (IF) stage ...

A couple of years ago one of the Hackaday Prize finalists was a project to take highschoolers through building a direct conversion radio receiver for the 40 metre amateur band. It was originated by ...

Over the winter, [Michael LeBlanc] thought a good way to spend his time during those long dark nights would be to scratch build his own direct conversion receiver. He was able to find plans for such a ...

Communications receiver architecture has evolved slowly over the years. The most common and successful configuration is the superheterodyne architecture, which translates the incoming signal to a ...

A direct conversion radio receiver takes a high frequency input signal, often in the 800MHz to 3GHz frequency range, and utilizes one mixer/demodulator stage to convert the signal to baseband without ...

Also called a "regenerative receiver," a radio receiver that detects and demodulates the carrier frequency broadcast by the station without using an intermediate frequency (IF) stage. The homodyne ...
