Abstract
A method and apparatus for generating an RF signal uses digital signal components to generate a synthesized RF signal having a plurality of frequency components. An analog filter is used to filter the synthesized RF signal. The analog filter is a tunable, active feedback circuit having one or more variable resonators and a variable gain block connected in a signal loop that is defined by a passband. The analog filter is tuned such that the passband of the analog filter overlaps one or more desired frequency components of the plurality of frequency components of the synthesized RF signal, and such that the passband has a relative bandwidth of about 1% or less.
