Abstract
A self-calibrating radio is described. In one exemplary implementation, a radio signal from its local voltage controlled oscillator. The calibration system automatically calibrates the radio by: (i) receiving a reference signal having a calibrated reference frequency, (ii) comparing the local frequency to the reference frequency to determine whether there is a difference between the local frequency and the reference frequency and (iii) adjusting the local frequency by an offset frequency, if the difference between the local frequency and the reference frequency is greater than a threshold value.
