            Abstract : 
A novel design based on Weaver topology is proposed. Studies showed that the image-rejection ratio (IRR) performance of the design is insensitive to the phase errors of the LO1 and the IRR against gain mismatch is inherently about 6 dB superior to the conventional Weaver topology. The design greatly increases the practicality of the Weaver receiver
