20120133406 | Configurable System for Cancellation of the Mean Value of a Modulated Signal - Some embodiments of the invention relate to a DC offset correction circuit comprising a feedback loop having a DAC controlled by a reconfigurable ADC, which determines (e.g., tracks) the mean value of a modulated input signal. The circuit operates according to two phase process. In a first “pre-modulation” tracking phase, an input signal is tracked by the ADC, which is configured to output the input signal's mean value as a digital code equivalent to the input mean value. The output of the ADC is provided to a DAC, which provides an analog representation of the mean value to an adder that subtracts the mean value from the modulated input signal to generate a bipolar adjusted input signal. In a second “modulation” phase, the estimated mean value is held constant, so that the bipolar adjusted input signal may be provided to an activated modulation circuit for improved system performance. | 05-31-2012 |
20120133412 | Square Wave Signal Component Cancellation - Some embodiments of the invention a circuit configured to apply a time domain processing sequence to a modulated input signal to estimate a mean value of the modulated input signal and to subtract the estimated mean value from the modulated input signal, thereby removing the DC offset from the input signal. In one particular embodiment, the time domain processing sequence is based on integration and differentiation of a demodulated output signal. In such an embodiment, a circuit is configured to integrate a demodulated signal to generate an integrated signal having a triangular shaped output signal. The circuit then measures the slopes of the integrated signal, by differentiation of the triangular shaped integrated signal, and generates an appropriate DC offset correction signal based upon the measured slopes. The DC offset correction signal may be added on top of the actual input signal to cancel the unwanted DC offset component. | 05-31-2012 |
