Abstract

Methods and apparatus for correcting frequency errors between a carrier frequency of a signal received by a wireless device and a reference frequency local to the device. For certain aspects, such a method generally includes receiving a signal in a receiver having an LO producing a reference frequency, a radio frequency (RF) phase-locked loop (PLL), and a digital rotator, estimating a frequency difference between a carrier frequency of the received signal and the LO reference frequency, and applying the estimated frequency difference to the RF PLL and the digital rotator.
