Abstract
A digital intermediate frequency (IF) receiver for frequency division multiplexed (FDM) signals including analog circuitry for receiving FDM signals and an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter for converting the received signals to a sampled digital received signal. A digital complex mixer responsive to the digital output of the A/D converter translates the spectrum of the sampled digital received signal to center the desired FDM channel at zero frequency (DC). Digital low pass filtering isolates the desired channel centered at DC, and a digital complex mixer can be used to translate the isolated selected channel to a predetermined IF frequency. The in-phase portion of the digital IF centered selected channel or the DC centered complex envelope selected channel can then be provided to appropriate demodulation or decoder networks.
