RF Receiver:

An RF receiver receives the modulated RF signal, and demodulates it.

Superheterodyne receiver :
A superheterodyne receiver (often shortened to superhet) uses frequency mixing to convert a received
signal to a fixed intermediate frequency(IF) which can be more conveniently processed than the
original radio carrier frequency. It was invented by US engineer Edwin Armstrong in 1918 during World War I.
[1]
Virtually all modern radio receivers use the superheterodyne principle. At the cost of an extra frequency
converter stage, the superheterodyne receiver provides superior selectivity and sensitivity compared with simpler
designs.

Regenerative receivers :
The regenerative receiver was invented in 1912[4] and patented in 1914[5] by American electrical
engineer Edwin Armstrong when he was an undergraduate at Columbia University.[6] Due partly to its
tendency to radiate interference,[3][2]by the 1930s the regenerative receiver was superseded by other
receiver designs, the TRF and superheterodyne receivers[7] and became obsolete,[2][8] but
regeneration (now called positive feedback) is widely used in other areas of electronics, such as
in oscillators and active filters.

PURPOSE :
Its purpose is to convert the modulated radio frequency signal
into information that is to be received.
By using antenna the RF signal is picked and send through the
transmission line to the electronic circuit of the receiver for
demodulation.

RF TRANSMITTER REPORT

EE-155, EE-071

RF Filter & Amplifier:

Receives the modulated radio frequency, filters it with all the
unwanted spectra that had engulfed in the signal during
transmission and amplifies the signal according to system
requirements.
RF/IF Converter:
Converts radio frequency into intermediate frequency, which is
constant as per design of the receiver
IF Filter & Amplifier:
Unwanted ripples and distortions removed and the signal
amplified depending upon system capability.
