Customize AD9361 IQ Phase

Thread Summary

The user encountered phase ambiguity issues with I and Q signals when transmitting through the DAC and receiving via the ADC on the AD9361 transceiver. The final answer confirmed that the phase difference of 0 or 180 degrees is expected due to VCO dividers and suggested that the user should ensure the I and Q signals have a 90-degree phase difference. The user resolved the issue by adjusting the receiver module and asked if it's possible to shift the received I signal to always be positive, which can be done externally in the baseband processing.

Hi 

I connected the DAC A IQ signal path to my custom IP and sent it out, and then received by ADC A IQ path, so I need to send and receive IQ like this(DAC) picture to correct calculations.

These pictures are in MATLAB but were captured by Ila in FPGA hardware.

But I gave an IQ signal like a picture(ADC), and my calculations are not possible.

As you can see, the IQ phase is not the same as DAC before sending, and the phase difference between them is zero. Also, I don't know if they are damaged by the DAC or ADC domain.

Please help and guide me on how to configure and change the phase between DAC IQ and ADC IQ signals to correctly send and receive data.
