2.1.5 Quadrature Sampling
In quadrature sampling the signal to be digitized is split into two signals. One of these signals is
multiplied by a sinusoid to downconvert it to a zero center frequency and form the in-phase
component of the original signal. The other signal is multiplied by a 90° phase-shifted sinusoid
to downconvert it to a zero center frequency and form the quadrature-phase component of the
original signal. Each of these components occupies only one-half of the bandwidth of the
original signal and can be sampled at one-half the sampling rate required for the original signal.
Therefore, quadrature sampling reduces the required sampling rate by a factor of two at the
expense of using two ADCs instead of one.
