Title:
VCO GAIN TRACKING FOR MODULATION GAIN SETTING CALIBRATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004042924
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) gain tracking is used for programming modulation gain settings to minimize modulation distortion in a low bandwidth phase locked loop of a mobile station (10). A synthesizer (20) generates a tuning voltage (Vt) for controlling a frequency of a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) modulated radio frequency signal. A controller (22) outputs a modulation data signal and includes an analog to digital converter (72) for receiving the tuning voltage from the synthesizer (20) on a VCO feedback loop (70), a gain control lookup table (LUT) (76) for storing modulation gain setting calibration data for respective mobile station sub-bands, and a gain setting digital to analog converter (DAC) (78) for outputting a modulation gain control signal to the synthesizer (20). The modulation gain setting calibration data is calibrated using a one-time or continuous calibration methodology during, respectively, a background or normal mode of mobile station operation.
