Patent ID: 8014724

Claim:
A system for processing a signal with a corresponding noise profile, the system comprising: a processor that analyzes spectral content of the corresponding noise profile; a modulator that modulates the signal; a filter that filters at least one noise harmonic within the signal based on said analyzed spectral content; a limiter that limits said filtered signal; a downconverter that downconverts the signal prior to said modulating, wherein said downconverter downconverts at least one signal component of the signal, and wherein said at least one signal component of the signal comprises one or both of an in-phase signal component and/or a quadrature signal component; a modulation mixer that modulates said in-phase signal component and/or said quadrature signal component with a modulation frequency; and an adder that adds said modulated in-phase signal component and said modulated quadrature signal component to obtain a downconverted modulated signal.
