ABSTRACT:
An ultra-wideband receiver system includes an intelligent-preselector stage to up-convert received signals to signals within a first IF frequency-range with stepped first oscillation signals, a first down-converting stage to down-convert the signals within the first IF frequency-range to signals within a second IF frequency-range with a fixed second oscillation signal, and a second down-converting stage to down-convert the signals within the second IF frequency-range to signals within a third IF frequency-range with stepped third oscillation signals. The center frequency of the first IF frequency-range may be at least 30% to 35% higher than a highest frequency in the receive-frequency range to provide an image frequency far from (e.g., more than twice) the highest frequency in the receive-frequency range. The receiver may also include a synthesizer to generate the first, second and third oscillation signals with half-integer frequency dividers based on a master reference signal.
