Abstract
A system and method is provided for efficient analog reconstruction of a digital signal to an intermediate frequency (IF). The digital signal can be a complex baseband digital signal that is sourced from a near perfect reconstruction filterbank (NPRFB). The output of the NPRFB, after some manipulation in the digital domain, is converted to the analog domain at IF. The IF analog signal can then be modulated with a high frequency RF signal or further mixed with a RF transmission frequency signal for RF transmission.
