Abstract
A computer-implemented method of estimating IQ imbalance in a communication system including a transmitter and a receiver. The method includes: defining a system model in which a transmitted signal is affected by TX IQ imbalance, carrier frequency offset (CFO) and RX IQ imbalance; controlling a local oscillator at the transmitter to introduce a known carrier frequency offset (CFO) during a calibration; and estimating unknown parameters in the system model using a pre-defined training sequence to determine the TX IQ imbalance and the RX IQ imbalance.
