Patent ID: 11218230

Abstract:
A calibration system for calibrating a number of transceivers, each comprising an in-phase signal path and a quadrature signal path in receive direction and/or in transmit direction is disclosed herein. The calibration system includes a calibration signal generator that is configured to generate a predefined calibration signal for every one of the transceivers, a calibration transceiver that is coupled to the calibration signal generator and to the transceivers and that is configured to supply the generated predefined calibration signals each to the respective transceiver during operation of the transceivers, and/or that is configured to receive the predefined calibration signals after they travel through each one of the transceivers during operation of the transceivers, and a calibration unit that is configured to calibrate the in-phase signal paths and the quadrature signal paths of the transceivers during operation of the transceivers based on the calibration signals as they are received by the transceivers or based on the calibration signals as they are received by the calibration transceiver. Further, an antenna system and a calibration method are also described.
