Title:
QUADRATURE DEMODULATOR AND INTERROGATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/097319
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A quadrature demodulator for suppressing noise affections as much as possible
even when the level of a received signal becomes small, thereby reducing the occurrences
of erroneous reproduction of the received data. In the quadrature demodulator,
an I-signal and a Q-signal are generated from a modulated received signal, a local
signal and from a local signal having been phase-shifted by 90 degrees, and then
the DC components of the I-signal and Q-signal are removed by capacitors (37,38).
In addition, the frequency components higher than the frequencies of the I-signal
and Q-signal are removed by lowpass filters (35,36). The I-signal having passed
through the lowpass filter is squared by an I-signal squaring part (43), while
the Q-signal having passed through the lowpass filter is squared by a Q-signal
squaring part (44). The squared I-signal and Q-signal are then added together
by an adding part (45). A comparator (18) then compares the level of a resultant
added signal (S1) with a threshold value (T1), thereby providing a signal (S2).
A data generating part (48) of a digital signal processing part (12) inverts the
signal level in response to each rising edge of the signal (S2), thereby demodulating
the received data.
