Frequency control data synchronization

A method comprising:

• generating, by a synchronizer, a trigger signal synchronized to a reference clock;
• synthesizing, by a synthesizer, a signal according to frequency control data in response to the trigger signal;
• processing, by a radio receiver, a carrier signal according to the synthesized signal;
• and
• measuring, by a phase measurement unit, a first channel frequency response based on the processed carrier signal.

A system comprising:

• a microcontroller;
• an interface configured to receive a channel center frequency change command from the microcontroller;
• a synchronizer coupled to a reference clock, the synchronizer configured to generate a trigger signal synchronized to the reference clock;
• and
• a phase-locked loop (PLL) synthesizer coupled to the reference clock, the PLL synthesizer configured to synthesize a signal with a channel center frequency specified by the channel center frequency change command in response to the trigger signal;
• a radio receiver coupled to the PLL synthesizer and configured to process a carrier signal according to the synthesized signal;
• and
• a phase measurement unit coupled to the reference clock and the synchronizer, the phase measurement unit configured to measure a first channel frequency response based on the processed carrier signal.
