Downconverting: The local oscillator minimum and maximumfrequencies are given by the range and specified IF, i.e.
fLOmin= fRFmin
+ fIF = 45 MHz + 40 MHz = 85 MHz,
fLOmax = fRFmax + fIF = 860 MHz + 40 MHz = 900 MHz.

Downconverting: The local oscillator minimum and maximumfrequencies are given by the range and specified IF, i.e.
fLOmin= fRFmin
+ fIF = 45 MHz + 40 MHz = 85 MHz,
fLOmax = fRFmax + fIF = 860 MHz + 40 MHz = 900 MHz.
Therefore, the resulting frequencies of the images are:
fIMmin= fLOmin
+ fIF = 85 MHz + 40 MHz = 125 MHz,
fIMmax = fLOmax + fIF = 900 MHz + 40 MHz = 940 MHz.
The location of images is problematic – see the diagram.

Upconverting: A better way consists in choosing a greater IF.Lets pick an IF frequency of say 1.5 GHz. The required LO will nowbe (the LO is below the IF now):3
fLOmin= fIF − fRFmax = 1500 MHz − 860 MHz = 640 MHz,
fLOmax = fIF − fRFmin= 1500 MHz − 45 MHz = 1455 MHz.

fLOmin= fIF − fRFmax = 1500 MHz − 860 MHz = 640 MHz,
fLOmax = fIF − fRFmin= 1500 MHz − 45 MHz = 1455 MHz.
Therefore, the resulting frequencies of the images are
fIMmin= fLOmin
+ fIF = 640 MHz + 1500 MHz = 2140 MHz,
fIMmax = fLOmax + fIF = 1455 MHz + 1500 MHz = 2955 MHz,
which is not problematic now because the image band does not inter-sect the signal band – see the diagram again.

which is not problematic now because the image band does not inter-sect the signal band – see the diagram again.
As shown, the greater IF causes the suppression of the images. How-ever, the most selective filters can only be realized for lower frequen-cies. As a result, a superheterodyne with dual conversion can beconsidered an optimal solution – see the superhet with the dual con-version.
