Proceedings of the 3rd European Microwave Integrated Circuits Conference 35-65GHz MMIC QPSK Modulator V. F. Fusco, C. Wang, T. Pochiraju ECIT, Queen's University Belfast Belfast, BT3 9DT, v.fusco-ecit.qub.ac.uk Abstract--A novel method for directly producing QPSK modulation from baseband IQ signals is presented. The key feature of the architecture is the absence of mixers and as a result unwanted
