In order to achieve both good adjacent channel selectivity and image rejection, the double-conversion receiver uses two intermediate frequencies (IFs). The incoming radio frequency (RF) signal from the antenna is first mixed with a sinusoidal signal from the 1st local oscillator (LO) to give a high 1st IF frequency.
Invented by Edwin Armstrong in 1918 during World War 1, the superheterodyne is the design used in almost all modern radio receivers. The incoming radio signal from the antenna (left) is passed through an RF filter to attenuate some undesired signals, amplified in a radio frequency (RF) amplifier, and mixed with an unmodulated sine wave from a ...
English: Block diagram of a tuned radio frequency (TRF) receiver, the simplest type of amplifying radio receiver circuit. It consists of one or more tuned RF amplifiers, each consisting of a tuned circuit which functioned as a bandpass filter followed by a radio frequency (RF) amplifier; a detector (demodulator) to extract the audio waveform from the radio carrier wave; followed by an audio ...
English: Block diagram of a tuned radio frequency (TRF) receiver, a type of radio receiver circuit invented in 1916 by Ernst Alexanderson and widely used in the vacuum tube receivers of the 1920s.
It consists of an antenna attached to a tuned circuit, which functions as a bandpass filter which allows through the frequency of the desired station while rejecting all the other radio signals picked up by the antenna, followed by a detector consisting of a semiconductor diode which extracts the audio modulation signal (sound) from the radio ...

English: Block diagram of a regenerative radio receiver, a type of radio receiver widely used before World War 2. It consists of a tuned circuit that serves as a bandpass filter to select the desired radio signal out of all the signals picked up by the antenna, and a combined amplifier-detector to increase the power of the signal and extract the audio modulation (sound) signal from from the ...
