The carrier term is usually represented mathematically as: |
![]() |
and we know that for the case of a 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ... data stream, (see Example 1.1) the Fourier series expansion is: |
![]() |
The mixing process (assuming perfect hardware mixing components) simply performs a multiplication of the carrier term with each of the spectral components in the Fourier series expansion, thus the mixer output can be written as: |
![]() |
