Abstract
A receiver can be configured to include an RF front end that is configured to downconvert a received signal to a baseband signal or a low Intermediate Frequency (IF) signal. The receiver can downconvert the desired signal from an RF frequency in the presence of numerous interference sources to a baseband or low IF signal for filtering and channel selection. The filtered baseband or low IF signal can be converted to a digital representation. The digital representation of the signal can be upconverted in the digital domain to a programmable IF frequency. The digital IF signal can be converted to an analog IF signal that can be processed by legacy hardware.
