Abstract
Exemplary embodiments dynamically select the LO frequency and mixer mode (i.e., low-side LO injection or high-side LO injection) for upconversion based on the desired RF output frequency in order to mitigate the effects of spurious and LO leakage signals that could violate radiation emission limits, e.g., in the case where the IF signal frequency is smaller than the RF operating band. By dynamically switching the LO frequency and mixer mode as a function of the requested operating RF channel, low-level emissions and spurious signal compliance with restricted bands can be achieved.
