A method and circuit for receiving a radio frequency signal by receiving
and amplifying the radio frequency signal to produce a received signal
and generating first and second clock signals corresponding to first and
second channel signals, respectively, of the received signal and
multiplying the received signal with the clock signals to obtain the
channel signals. Pre-selectivity filtering of the received signal is
performed by filtering the first channel using a first impedance,
filtering the second channel using a second impedance, and converting the
first and second impedances with respect to one another through a first
gyrator. Amplitude limiting of the first and second channels is performed
to obtain first and second amplitude limited channels. Poly-phase
selectivity filtering of the first and second amplitude limited channels
is performed to obtain first and second selectivity filtered channels.
The selectivity filtered channels are demodulated to obtain a data
signal.
