MIXER WITH BIAS SHARING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17931760 titled 'MIXER WITH BIAS SHARING

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes systems, methods, and devices for wireless communications that support downconversion in a radio frequency (RF) system.

  • An apparatus for wireless communications includes a first mixer, a second mixer, and a first mixer bias circuit.
  • The first mixer is coupled to an input node.
  • The second mixer is also coupled to the input node.
  • The first mixer bias circuit outputs a first local oscillator (LO) signal.
  • The first mixer bias circuit is coupled to the first mixer and the second mixer to output the first LO signal to both mixers.

Potential Applications

  • Wireless communication systems
  • RF systems
  • Signal processing technologies

Problems Solved

  • Efficient downconversion in RF systems
  • Improved wireless communication performance
  • Enhanced signal processing capabilities

Benefits

  • Higher quality wireless communication
  • Increased efficiency in RF systems
  • Enhanced signal processing for various applications


Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communications that support downconversion in a radio frequency (RF) system. In a first aspect, an apparatus for wireless communications includes a first mixer coupled to an input node; a second mixer coupled to the input node; and a first mixer bias circuit configured to output a first local oscillator (LO) signal, the first mixer bias circuit coupled to the first mixer and to the second mixer to output the first LO signal to the first mixer and to the second mixer. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
