Abstract
A method of canceling gain and phase imbalance including estimating a cancellation parameter based on the signal divided by its complex conjugate, calculating a correction value for the signal using the cancellation parameter, and correcting the signal by subtracting the correction value from the signal. Estimate the cancellation parameter may include performing a stochastic gradient algorithm or a least squares estimate. A cancellation system including a conjugate conversion unit, an estimator, a combiner, a converter, and a subtractor. The estimator estimates a cancellation parameter and the combiner combines the cancellation parameter and the complex conjugate signal to provide a cancellation signal. The converter converts the cancellation signal to a correction signal, and the subtractor subtracts the correction signal from the imbalanced signal to provide a corrected signal. The combiner may be an adaptable tap of a digital signal processing circuit.
