Abstract
In this article, very low sensitivity variable complex filter (VCF) sections are developed. They have two important advantages: extremely low passband sensitivity and independent tuning of the bandwidth and the central frequency over a wide frequency range. The first advantage provides resistance to quantization effects, while the second one gives a better digital signal processing quality and extends the area of possible applications of the developed filters. Based on the proposed VCF sections an adaptive complex system is designed which demonstrates very fast convergence and low computational complexity. This system is applied for narrowband interference cancellation in multiband orthogonal frequency division multiplexing receivers and wideband noise cancellation in OFDM receivers. It is experimentally verified that a better signal-to-noise ratio and signal-to-interference ratio can be achieved using the proposed adaptive complex filtering scheme.
