Saw-less receiver including an if frequency translated bpf

A surface acoustic wave (SAW)-less receiver comprises:

• a front end module (FEM) interface module operable to receive an inbound radio frequency (RF) signal;
• an RF to intermediate frequency (IF) receiver section operable to:
• down-convert the inbound RF signal into an inbound IF signal;
• up-convert a baseband filter response to an IF filter response;
• and
• filter the inbound IF signal based on the IF filter response to produce a filtered inbound IF signal;
• and
• a receiver IF to baseband section operable to convert the filtered inbound IF signal into one or more inbound symbol streams.

A radio frequency (RF) to intermediate frequency (IF) receiver section comprises:

• a mixing module operable to convert an inbound RF signal into an in-phase (I) mixed signal and a quadrature (Q) mixed signal;
• a mixed buffer section operable to:
• filter and buffer the I mixed signal to produce an IF I signal;
• filter and buffer the Q mixed signal to produce an IF Q signal;
• and
• a frequency translated bandpass filter (FTBPF) circuit module operable to frequency translate a baseband filter response to an IF filter response such that the FTBPF circuit module filters undesired signal components of the IF I signal and the IF Q signal to produce an inbound IF signal.
