A transmitter includes a first mixer to generate a first output signal by
up-converting a first baseband signal having a first DC offset component.
A second mixer generates a second output signal by up-converting a second
baseband signal having a second DC offset component. The second output
signal is subtracted from the first output signal to generate a
transmitter output signal. The transmitter output signal includes a local
oscillator (LO) leakage signal caused by the first and/or second DC
offset components. A third mixer produces a third output signal by
up-converting the first DC offset component. A fourth mixer produces a
fourth output signal by up-converting the second DC offset component. The
fourth output signal is subtracted from the third output signal to
generate a LO leakage cancellation signal. The LO leakage cancellation
signal is subtracted from the transmitter output signal, thereby reducing
a power of the LO leakage signal.
