Abstract
A method and an arrangement for compensating for amplitude imbalance of a quadrature modulator including: determining a first correlation on the basis of a first modulation signal and an output signal of the quadrature modulator; determining a second correlation on the basis of a second modulation signal and the output signal of the quadrature modulator; producing a compensation signal proportional to the amplitude imbalance on the basis of a ratio of the determined correlations and the first and second modulation signals; and processing at least one of the modulation signals of the quadrature modulator with the compensation signal; wherein determining the correlations uses unprocessed modulation signals of the quadrature modulator for determining the correlations.
