Introduction -- A Low-IF Complex AE ADC-based DTV Receiver -- A Complex AE Modulator with an Improved STF -- Architectural-Level Design of the Experimental AE Modulator -- Integrated Circuit Implementation -- Conclusions -- Appendix A: Modulator Design Example.

This book describes techniques for designing complex, discrete-time AE ADCs with signal-transfer functions that significantly filter interfering signals. The book provides an understanding of theory, issues, and implementation of discrete complex AE ADCs. The concepts developed in each chapter are further explained by applying them to a target application of AE ADCs in DTV receivers. Focuses on complex AE ADCs and techniques for their implementation; Describes techniques to alleviate problems in implementation, such as image rejection deterioration due to mismatches; Discusses advantages of filtering STFs and describes an architecture for their implementation; Includes Matlab, Simulink, and Mathematica code used in design and behavioral simulations for design and implementation of complex AE ADCs.
