Abstract
An output of a transmitter is looped back to an input of a receiver during a first time period while applying a frequency offset between the transmitter and the receiver. A first imbalance between an in-phase (I) branch and a quadrature-phase (Q) branch in the receiver is determined based on a signal received at the receiver during the first time period. The receiver is calibrated based on the determined first imbalance. After calibrating the receiver, the output of the transmitter is looped back to the input of the receiver during a second time period during which the frequency offset is not applied. A second imbalance between an I branch in and a Q branch in the transmitter is determined based on a signal received at the receiver during the second time period while the frequency offset is not applied. The transmitter is calibrated based on the determined second imbalance.
