Abstract

GSM baseband receiver arrangement using digital signal processing is disclosed. The baseband receiver arrangement comprises two channel for inphase (Iin) and quadrature (Qin) components of the received signal. The DC offset of each channel is separately estimated by accumulating samples from the outputs of the second filter stages M1 and M2 and dividing the result by 64. The result is then negated and applied to the digital DC offset controls I1 and I2. This two stage process ensures that the majority DC offset is removed prior to variable gain, and the residual DC offset is removed before digital frequency shifting. Applying DC offset correction before the digital frequency shifting ensures that DC is annulled for any subsequent shift.
