Abstract

The present invention teaches a paging transmitter that has an exciter that upconverts a modulated signal to an intermediate frequency (IF) above that of the transmit frequency. By so doing, the paging transmitter can broadcast a large range of transmit frequencies. Additionally, filtering of unwanted byproducts during the upconversion process is significantly simplified.
