Abstract

A radio calibration system includes an FPGA that generates a calibration signal by a pseudo noise generator and mixes the calibration signal with a carrier generated by a carrier generator. The FPGA injects the calibration signal into an analog electronic device which couples the calibration signal into a receiver channel. The receiver channel measures calibration signal power, group delay, and phase, and performs calibration based on these measurements. A reference clock synchronizes the pseudo noise generator, the carrier generator and the receiver channel.
