Abstract
A multi-channel receiver comprising an ADC and a multi-band, multi-channel selector. The ADC converts a broad-band multi-channel signal into a digital signal. The digital signal is then broken into sub-bands each containing a plurality of channels. A channel selector selects desired channels from the appropriate sub-band. The multi-channel receiver may deliver simultaneous channels equal to the number of channel selectors that have been implemented. The multi-channel receiver may be implemented on a single integrated circuit.
