Abstract
A three-sampler frequency conversion technique is proposed for use in frequency counters. Its measurement range extends into the microwave frequency region without the long acquisition times associated with the conventional microwave translation techniques. An algorithm has been developed which can be executed at very low speed using a microprocessor or low speed digital circuitry.
