Abstract

A DC offset filter for wide band beamforming receivers is disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus includes a first mixer configured to down-convert an RF wideband beamformed signal to generate a first baseband wideband beamformed signal, the RF wideband beamformed signal having a beam pattern selected from a plurality of beam patterns, and a notch filter configured to remove DC offset from the first baseband wideband beamformed signal independent of the beam pattern.
