Abstract

In a calibration phase for a tuner of the DZIF type, N calibration frequency signals are generated at an input of a filter. The N calibration frequency signals have N calibration frequencies corresponding respectively after transposition to N analysis frequencies at an input of a Fourier transform. An amplitude and a phase of a corresponding point at an output of the Fourier transform are calculated for each analysis frequency. In a reception phase, each of the outputs of the Fourier transform is corrected with an inverse of the corresponding amplitude and opposite the corresponding phase calculated in the calibration phase.
