Understanding the Role of the Local Oscillator in a Receiver
Introduction to Local Oscillators The local oscillator (LO) is a fundamental component in the architecture of radio frequency (RF) receivers. This crucial element is responsible for generating a stable frequency used to convert incoming RF signals to a lower, more manageable intermediate frequency (IF) or directly to baseband. The process of converting these signals is …
