Abstract
An RF communications receiver permits greater integration on standard silicon chips and consumes less power than previous receivers. Sub-sampling and discrete-time signal processing techniques are used to frequency down-convert, filter, amplify, and select a desired analog RF channel. A sample-and-hold circuit sub-samples the desired analog RF channel of carrier frequency f.sub.c, thereby down-converting it to a discrete-time image signal of frequency f.sub.i. Successive down-sampling, anti-alias filtering, and amplification of the discrete-time image signal yield a low-frequency discrete-time signal containing a down-converted channel of frequency f.sub.k. The low-frequency discrete-time signal is then digitized, filtered, and demodulated to reveal its baseband information content.
