Abstract:Common method for up-converter implementation with analog device is of high complexity, poor inflexibility and large power consumption. With the development of semiconductor devices, software radio requires the Radio Frequency(RF) or Intermediate Frequency(IF) signals processing next to base band as close as possible. Therefore, a method for digital direct RF up-converter with poly-phase filters based on Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA) is proposed. Its feasibility is verified through software and hardware simulations.
