The problem of designing a digital frontend (DFE) was considered which can dynamically access or sense dual bands in any radio frequency (RF) regions without requiring hardware changes.In particular,second-order bandpass sampling (BPS) as a technique that enables to realize the multiband reception function was discussed.In a second-order BPS system,digital reconstruction filters were utilized to eliminate the interferences generated while down converting arbitrarily positioned RF-band signals by using the direct digitization method.However,the inaccuracy in the phase shift or the amplitude mismatch between the two sample streams may cause insufficient rejection of interference.Practical problems were studied,such as performance degradation in signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) and compensation methods to overcome them.In order to demonstrate the secondorder BPS as a flexible DFE suitable for software-defined radio (SDR) or cognitive radio (CR),a DFE testbed with a reconfigurable structure was implemented.Moreover,with a view to further demonstrate the proposed compensation algorithms,experimental results show that dual bands are received simultaneously.
