Abstract
A method of calibrating parameters for a polar transmitter (Polar TX) system includes receiving phase information derived from transmission information in a Polar TX for producing a radio frequency (RF) broadcast signal. An Inphase local oscillator (LO_I) signal and a quadrature phase local oscillator (LO_Q) signal are derived from a combination of a first signal and the phase information using a digital phase lock loop. A feedback receiver (FBR) receives the RF broadcast signal provided by the Polar TX. The LO_I signal and the LO_Q signal are mixed with the RF broadcast signal to obtain mixer output signals. RF path delay and IQ phase imbalance are concurrently determined as a function of the first signal and of the mixer output signals.
