DECT transceiver architectures: Superheterodyne or direct conversion?
Gerhard Schultes, Peter Kreuzgruber, Arpad L. Scholtz · 2002
A conventional heterodyne transceiver and a direct conversion transceiver for application in the DECT standard are compared. The authors describe how both systems master the frequency domain multiple (access)/time domain duplex/time domain multiple access (FDM(A)/TDD/TDMA) transmission of DECT, and describe the implementation problems with respect to complexity and integrability.
