Title:
DC OFFSET COMPENSATION FOR ZERO IF QUADRATURE DEMODULATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1999057912
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention provides dc offset compensation circuit (800) for a zero IF FM quadrature demodulator in an AMPS cellular mobile telephone system. A frequency offset is introduced to remove modulation inherent dc components from supervisory audio tones and Manchester codes from a modulated signal. The local oscillator (608) is operated at a frequency that is slightly different, e.g. 5 kHz from a frequency which would mix down the intermediate frequency signal to zero. A dc offset is produced with a control loop to eliminate fixed dc components caused by leakage from a local oscillator (608). After a given time, the control loop may be frozen and the frequency offset of the local oscillator (608) can be removed.
