Frequency converters are used to transfer signal from intermediate frequency (IF) to carrier (RF) of vice versa. Up Converters transfer signal from IF to RF, Down Converters – from RF to IF. Parameters of the RF Up/Down converters used to specify its characteristics are listed below. - RF input/output frequency range;
- IF output/input central frequency;
- IF signal bandwidth;
- Noise figure (NF);
- One-decibel compression point (P1dB);
- 3-rd order interception point (IP3);
- Path gain;
- Image rejection.
