US 2025/0097075 A1 · SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING MODULATED RF SIGNALS FOR CONTROLLING OR READING-OUT A MULTIPLE-STATE SYSTEM

Abstract

A modulated RF signals generating system for controlling or reading-out a multiple-state system, such as a quantum computing architecture or a multiple-input multiple-output architecture, is provided. The system includes a baseband signal generator having a baseband signal generator output(s), a reference frequency source being in unidirectional or bidirectional communication with the baseband signal generator, a multitone source including multitone source output(s) and being in unidirectional or bidirectional communication with the reference frequency source to lock the corresponding phase between the baseband signal generator and the multitone source, and mixer(s) including a first mixer input, a second mixer input(s) and a mixer output. The corresponding one of the baseband signal generator output(s) is connected to the first mixer input of the respective one of the mixer(s). The corresponding one of the multitone source output(s) is connected to the second mixer input of the respective one of the mixer(s).
