This article presents a parallel sliding-IF 5-6-GHz wireless local area network (WLAN) receiver front-end supporting two-band carrier aggregation (CA), which alleviates potential local oscillator (LO) pulling and crosstalk problems. The supported frequency spacing between any two different carriers...
