A transceiver for transmitting and receiving signals includes a transmitter operative to up-convert baseband signals from a baseband frequency into RF signals at a radio frequency (RF) frequency and output the RF signals, a receiver operative to receive RF signals and down-convert the RF signals into baseband signals having the baseband frequency, and a plurality of calibration paths coupling the transmitter to the receiver. Any of the calibration paths can be selected to be active when calibrating components of the transceiver. Tunable components can use calibration information to optimize transceiver performance.
