TX Modulation Spurs
Posted: Sun Jul 03, 2016 10:29 am
I'm working on a weak signal station based on the BladeRF and noticed broadband modulation spurs with any type of modulation I've applied. In the simplest case, I'm using osmocom_siggen to modulate a sine wave at 3kHz offset and noticed spurs every 160kHz above and below the desired signal on a spectrum analyzer. The first spur is 35 dB below the signal level. I've corrected for DC and IQ via the spectrum analyzer and changed the TX gains with no relative effect. Thanks in advance!
