A radio communication device, which transmits or receives a signal at a
predetermined carrier frequency. The device includes a reference
oscillator, which generates a clock frequency having a clock frequency
error relative to a specified frequency thereof, a processor, which
estimates the clock frequency error and parses the error to determine
coarse and fine error correction components, at least one frequency
synthesizer, which responsive to the clock frequency and to the coarse
error correction component, generates a partially corrected frequency
having a residual frequency error, which partially corrected frequency is
applied to process the signal and baseband processing circuitry, which
applies the fine error correction component to process the signal so as
to correct the residual frequency error.
