NON-LINEARITY CORRECTION

Abstract:

A method for non-linearity correction includes receiving a first output signal from a data signal path containing a first analog-to-digital converter and receiving a second output signal from a second analog-to-digital converter. The method also includes generating first non-linearity coefficients using the first output signal and generating second non-linearity coefficients using the first and second output signals. The method further includes applying, by a non-linearity corrector in the data signal path, the first and second non-linearity coefficients to compensate for non-linearity components in a digitized signal output from the first analog-to-digital converter to generate a corrected digitized signal.
