Abstract

This paper mainly focuses on implementing a new approach rather than using the conventional method of generating an intermediate frequency in a mixer. The ordinary mixer is compared with a switching mixer through several techniques in order to strengthen the point that switching mixers have a better performance. Theoretically, we know that switching mixers are more efficient but here we also give it a practical justification through this paper. Software such as MATLAB and Proteus has been used for the same. The main objective of this research work is to determine the maximum amount of noise that can be removed to obtain a good reconstruction of the input signal.
