Abstract
The principle of wireless communications originates from the need to communicate between two points separated by a distance sufficiently large to prevent the use of wires. This article talks about modern receivers in which the basic building blocks of modern RF front-ends are presented which are homodyne, (super heterodyne), low IF and wideband IF.
