DUAL MODE DIGITAL FILTERS FOR RF SAMPLING TRANSCEIVERS
Dual mode filters having two reconfigurable multi-stage filters. In a dual band mode, each reconfigurable filter filters an input signal in a different band using every filter stage. In a single band mode, both reconfigurable filters are effectively divided into two sub-chains that include either the odd-numbered filter stages or the even-numbered filter stages. Together, the four sub-chains in the single band mode filter an input signal in a single band with a higher parallelization than each reconfigurable filter in the dual band mode. In some embodiments, the dual mode filter is a decimation filter. In other embodiments, the dual mode filter is a resampling filter. In still other embodiments, the dual mode filter is an interpolation filter.

Estimation of the amplitude of a periodic component in a measured signal through a delta-sigma modulator
A method and device estimate an amplitude of a periodic component in a measured analog signal, e.g. from an electric motor, and adapt a control law for an external entity, e.g., a variable speed drive (VSD) controlling the motor, based on the estimated amplitude. The measured analog signal is converted by delta-sigma modulation to a digital signal that is applied to at least one filter. Periodic signals of independent known periodic functions are also applied to the at least one filter. In response, the at least one filter provides the estimated amplitude of the periodic component in the measured analog signal that may be used to adapt the control law. A monitoring value for the electric motor may also be based on the estimated amplitude of the periodic component.
