Receiver architecture for wireless transceiver

A method of improving image rejection comprising:

• determining a channel for a wireless transceiver;
• determining digitally a receiver I/Q calibration adjustment based on a loop back within the transceiver of a simulated image signal for the channel during a calibration mode of the transceiver;
• and
• applying digitally the determined receiver I/Q calibration adjustment to received signals during an operation mode of the transceiver to improve rejection of an image signal for the determined channel.

A method of performing receiver I/Q calibration in a wireless transceiver comprising:

• determining a channel for a wireless transceiver;
• determining an image frequency for the channel;
• receiving, via loop back within the transceiver, a simulated image signal at the image frequency for the channel;
• down converting the received image signal to produce analog in-phase and quadrature-phase (I/Q);
• converting the analog (I/Q) signals to a digital form;
• and
• determining digitally an I/Q calibration adjustment to place the digital I/Q signals at substantially the same amplitude and substantially 90 degrees out of phase.
