Abstract
A method for reducing LO leakage in a radio frequency transmitter begins by producing analog outbound signals from digital outbound signals that represent transmit data. The processing continues by amplifying the analog outbound signals to produce amplified analog outbound signals. The process then continues by mixing the amplified analog outbound signals with a local oscillation to produce mixed signals having an LO leakage component. The processing then continues by attenuating the mixed signals having the LO leakage component to produce mixed signals having reduced LO leakage.
