First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- an adjustable filter configured to filter a communication signal to provide a filtered communication signal, the adjustable filter being characterized by a center frequency; and
a digital processing circuit configured to measure an image rejection and an DC offset rejection of the filtered communication signal and to cause the adjustable filter to adjust the center frequency from a first center frequency to a second center frequency to optimize the image rejection and the DC offset rejection of the filtered communication signal.
