Abstract

For wideband systems, IQ imbalance values may be frequency selective. To do estimation and compensation, the frequency selectivity cannot be neglected. In this chapter, we look at the frequency dependent IQ imbalance estimation and compensation. We first look at the estimation and compensation of IQ imbalance at the transmitter, then look at joint RX IQ imbalance and frequency offset estimation and compensation at the receiver.
