Abstract
In this paper, novel blind identification and compensation architectures for the frequency response mismatch of a two-channel time-interleaved analog-to-digital-converter (TI-ADC) are proposed. First, detailed modeling of the frequency response mismatch is carried out, establishing a direct connection and similarity to the well-known in-phase/quadrature mismatch problem. Stemming from this modeling, the proposed blind mismatch identification and compensation architectures are then developed building on complex statistical signal processing. Compared to the existing methods in the literature, the proposed solutions can identify and correct the frequency response mismatch in a fully blind manner for the full digital bandwidth (BW) of the ADC system, and are also applicable in sub-sampling TI-ADC devices and RF sampling. The efficiency of the proposed solutions is verified and demonstrated using comprehensive measurements of actual RF-sampling TI-ADC hardware with gigahertz-scale instantaneous BW.
