Specifying Receiver IP2 and IP3 Based on Tolerance to Modulated Blockers.

This paper provides an analysis of the impact of amplitude modulated blocking signals on receiver performance due to device nonlinearity. Using a standard polynomial model of nonlinearity, we derive limitations on the receiver SNR capabilities, depending on the blocking signal modulation statistical properties. The phenomena that we focus on are cross-modulation due to odd-order nonlinearity and amplitude demodulation due to even-order nonlinearity. The results are then detailed for two types of blocking signal modulations: GSMJEDGE modified 8PSK and UTRAIFDD uplink HPSK. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
