Automatic adjustment of quadrature modulators

A technique for the automatic correction of errors in RF quadrature modulators is described. The method uses a diode detector to provide amplitude feedback to guide the adaption of baseband circuits that correct for carrier leak, differential gain and phase mismatch errors.
