Quadrature bandpass sampling (QBPS) offers a reduced complexity alternative to sampled quadrature ( Q ) downconversion. However, if the in‐phase and quadrature sequences produced are reconstructed at the baseband in the same manner, distortion will result. The effects of this distortion are examined with a view to establish the best way to process the QBPS sequences.
