Front-end of a digital ATV receiver

Wireless Transceiver Systems Design

“…An exhaustive design-time search approach has been described in [Sinyanskiy98]; however, important nonidealities of the front-end were neglected. The analysis considers noise figure, second-and third-order intercept point, frequency selectivity, and includes saturation analysis from which we can conclude about the valid receive range for a given SNR (and thus modulation scheme).…”
