Abstract

Systems and method for improving performance of a radio frequency system are provided. One embodiment describes a radio frequency system, which includes an antenna that wirelessly transmits analog electrical signals at a desired transmission frequency; a feedback receiver that determines a feedback signal, which includes a portion of a transmitted analog electrical signal via a coupler; and a controller that determines location and magnitude of spurious emissions transmitted at frequencies other than the desired transmission frequency by comparing the feedback signal with a desired signal, in which the desired signal includes a digital electrical signal that does not contain noise introduced by the radio frequency system; and instructs the radio frequency system to adjust operational parameters used to transmit the analog electrical signals when the magnitude of the spurious emissions exceeds a spurious emissions limit at the determined location.
