DAC and ADC converters
-Data Converter impacts the factor for the performance of the overall radio design
-Requirements: very high sampling rates, high number of effective quantization bits, an operating bandwidth of several Ghz, a large spurious-free dynamic range, a reasonable price
-DAC and ADC converters
-Sampling and Quantization
-Nyquist Zones
-Aliasing
-Bandpass filtering – uses image to translate bandpass signals to baseband
-Errors occurs in Quantization
-Quantization Noise
-Overload distortion
