Abstract
This paper presents a design for timing mismatch calibration in a TIADC (Time-Interleaved Analog-to-Digital Converter) with wideband inputs. By exploiting the approximately linear relationship between the autocorrelation properties of sub-ADCs and timing mismatch, we achieve rapid convergence of error estimation. A low-cost detection [...] Read more.
This paper presents a design for timing mismatch calibration in a TIADC (Time-Interleaved Analog-to-Digital Converter) with wideband inputs. By exploiting the approximately linear relationship between the autocorrelation properties of sub-ADCs and timing mismatch, we achieve rapid convergence of error estimation. A low-cost detection method is proposed based on the convergent monotonicity of the Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm, which can automatically correct the calibration direction when the input signal goes beyond the Nyquist zone. Physical test results indicate that the spurs caused by timing mismatch can be suppressed by 26–30 dB using the proposed method. Full article

Abstract
Due to the nonlinear and aliasing effects, the sub-Nyquist photonic receiver for radio frequency (RF) signals with large instantaneous bandwidth suffers limited dynamic range and noise performance.

Due to the nonlinear and aliasing effects, the sub-Nyquist photonic receiver for radio frequency (RF) signals with large instantaneous bandwidth suffers limited dynamic range and noise performance. We designated a deep residual network (Resnet) to realize adaptive linearization across 40 GHz bandwidth. In contrast to conventional linearization methods, the deep learning method achieves the suppression of multifactorial spurious distortions and the noise floor simultaneously. It does not require an accurate calculation of the nonlinear transfer function or prior signal information. The experiments demonstrated that the proposed Resnet could improve the spur-free dynamic range (SFDR) and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) significantly by testing with single-tone signals, dual-tone signals, wireless communication signals, and modulated radar signals.

We present a spectrally-dense phase-reference and its calibration for nonlinear vector network analyzers (NVNAs) using a step recovery diode (SRD) comb-generator with a multi-tone stimulus. Frequency selection for multi-tone stimulus based on prime number algorithms was used with the Digital Real-Time Oscilloscope (DRTO) to avoid the sub-Nyquist spurs components and to increase the effective sampling rate so that the waveform can be observed in greater detail. The measured results were calibrated to minimize drift and jitter and achieved excellent agreement between the prime number and the exact frequency strategies except at the sub-Nyquist frequencies. The analysis indicates that the prime number selected frequencies show significantly improved performance by avoiding the DRTO distortion components. We have verified the validity of the method described in this paper by experimental measurement results. Full article
