Abstract

In this paper, we have presented the improved IF transceiver architecture and the implementation and experimental results on re-configurable transceiver based on digital IF for multiple wideband OFDM/TDD base stations for high-speed portable internet-service in which is issued Korea. The implemented IF transceiver has been designed to support multiple frequency allocations and multiple standards by only modifying the programmable software not its hardware like as the software-defined-radio concept. Also, the digital complex quadrature modulation technique has been used for the digital IF transmitter, which is able to combine multiple frequency bands in digital processing block not RF block and to reject the image frequency signals. And the bandpass sampling technique has been used for the digital IF receiver to reduce the sampling rate of ADC. This paper has shown the experiment results on the frequency response and constellation on the base-station implemented using the modified IEEE 802.16a/e physical layer channel structure based on OFDM/TDD.
