NPL-3 Company confidential System Module and User Interface CCS Technical Documentation RF Module Introduction The RF module performs the necessary high frequency operations of the GSM850/1800/ 1900 tripleband (EDGE) engine. Both the transmitter and receiver have been implemented by using direct conversion architecture which means that the modulator and demodulator operate at the channel frequency. The core of the RF is an application-specific integrated circuit, Helgo.
Company confidential NPL-3 System Module and User Interface CCS Technical Documentation RF Frequency Plan RF frequency plan is shown below. The VCO operates at the channel frequency multiplied by two or four depending on the frequency band of operation. This means that the baseband modulated signals are directly converted up to the transmission frequency and the received RF signals directly down to the baseband frequency.
