Abstract
A multi-carrier filter for a wireless communications system employing a multi-carrier signal. The multi-carrier filter includes a first mechanism for receiving the multi-carrier signal and extracting carrier signal components of the multi-carrier signal in response thereto. A second mechanism filters the carrier signal components and outputs a demodulated and filtered multi-bandwidth signal in response thereto. In the specific embodiment, the first mechanism includes a rotator. The multi-carrier signal is a 3× bandwidth multi-carrier signal having three carrier components. The three carrier components include a center carrier, a left carrier, and a right carrier. The center carrier, the left carrier, and the right carrier are separated by approximately 1.25 MHz. The rotator is a lookup table rotator that includes a mechanism for selectively rotating the multi-carrier-signal clockwise or counter clockwise and outputting the left carrier or the right carrier, respectively, in response thereto.
