Abstract
A processing device processes an analog complex input signal representing a sequence of OFDM symbols in a radio-receiver. The processing device comprises processing paths, each comprising a complex mixer and an analog channel-selection filter. Furthermore, the processing device comprises an oscillator unit that provides local oscillator signals associated with the complex mixer of each processing path. A control unit determines, based on received control data, subcarrier locations, within at least one individual OFDM symbol of the sequence, of one or more resource blocks allocated to the radio receiver. The control unit, for each of the at least one individual OFDM symbol, controls the local oscillator signals based on the determined subcarrier locations and passbands of the channel-selection filters such that each resource block allocated to the radio receiver is frequency translated by a complex mixer of the processing paths to appear within the passband of the following channel-selection filter.
