Abstract
In an up-converter path of a transmitter, wide-band signal system like direct conversion WiGig, a high pass filter (HPF) is placed in the baseband path after the low pass filter (LPF) but before the mixers. The baseband signal of WiGig can have a bandwidth of 800 MHz. The HPF removes the frequencies from 0-40 MHz from the baseband signal and degrades the overall signal of the baseband by a dB or so. However, the frequency pulling is significantly reduced since oscillator frequency and Radio frequency (RF) transmitter frequencies after conversion become further separated when compared a system using to the conventional approach. This causes the injected signal to fall outside the locking range of the oscillator. The concern of substrate coupling is reduced and allows for a reduction in the physical distance between the oscillator and the mixer and reduces a shift in the desired target frequency of operation.
