ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for an improved transceiver architecture using fewer frequency synthesizers. The number of frequency synthesizers is reduced by utilizing an existing frequency source having a frequency slightly offset from the ideal sampling frequency. In one embodiment, an improved transceiver capable of communicating CDMA encoded signals is presented. The transceiver includes a first frequency synthesizer producing a first mixing tone, a second frequency synthesizer producing a second mixing tone, a first sampling source producing a first sampling signal, and a receiving channel. The receiving channel includes a first mixer, a second mixer, and an analog to digital converter (ADC). The first mixer receives the incoming CDMA signal and the first mixing tone, producing a first IF signal. The second mixer receives the first IF signal and the second mixing tone, producing a second IF signal in response. The ADC receives the second IF signal and the first sampling signal, producing a digital data stream in response, whereby the frequency of the first sampling signal is offset from the frequency of the second IF signal, the digital data having a small amount of error associated therewith in proportion to the small amount of the frequency offset.
