RADIO-FREQUENCY RECEIVER
First Claim
1. A radio-frequency (RF) receiver capable of receiving first RF signals in a first frequency band and second RF signals in a second frequency band lower than the first frequency band, the receiver comprising:
- a local oscillator;
a frequency divider for frequency-dividing a signal output from the local oscillator, wherein the signal output from the frequency divider contains a first output signal and a second output signal different in phase by 90 degrees from the first output signal, the first and second output signal being produced by frequency-dividing the signal output from the local oscillator;
a first signal receiving section for receiving the first RF signals in the first frequency band;
a second signal receiving section for receiving the second RF signals in the second frequency band, the second signal receiving section comprising;
a tuned filter allowing a signal of the second frequency band to pass through the tuned filter, a first mixer operable to mix the signal output from the tuned filter with the first output signal of the frequency divider, a phase shifter operable to shift a signal output from the first mixer in phase by 90 degrees, and a second mixer operable to mix the signal output from the tuned filter with the second output signal of the frequency divider;
wherein a signal output from the second mixer and a signal output from the phase shifter are output from an output terminal of the receiver along with a signal output from the first signal receiving section.

Abstract
A radio-frequency (RF) receiver includes an input terminal for receiving RF signals in a first frequency band and a second frequency band lower than the first frequency band, a first tuned filter allowing a signal of a passing frequency in the RF signal in the first frequency band to pass through the filter, a local oscillator, a frequency divider for frequency-dividing a signal output from the local oscillator, a first mixer operable to convert the signal output from the first tuned filter into a signal of an intermediate frequency, a second tuned filter allowing a signal of a passing frequency of the RF signal in the second frequency band to pass through the filter, a second mixer operable to convert the signal output from the second tuned filter into a signal of the intermediate frequency, and a phase-locked-loop (PLL) circuit operable to control an oscillation frequency of the local oscillator and the passing frequencies of the first tuned filter and the second tuned filter.
