For thispurpose, a receiver architecture is proposed, where the analogue to digital conversion of narrowband signals is carried out at low values of intermediate frequency, while wide band signals arebeing converted at zero IF.In order to preserve the low power consumption requirements demanded by mobile terminals,an A/D converter able to reach high values of signal to noise ratio by using modest oversam pling ratios is needed. Another characteristic, that should be exhibited by the converter is flex ibility, since it has to work in a multi mode environment handling with different intermediatefrequencies, channel bandwidths and modulation techniques.
