ABSTRACT:
An improved radio receiver that maintains a stable predetermined IF frequency upon receipt of input carrier signals of differing frequencies. The IF signal (14) is processed through a signal demodulation unit (16) that includes a tangent processing unit (22) to yield a control signal that varies as a tangent function of both the demodulated IF signal and a reference signal from a reference oscillator (17). This control signal is used to control the frequency and phase of a reference signal (26) used by the IF stage (12) to center the IF signal with respect to the IF stage characteristics.
