1. A wireless communication apparatus, comprising:
a local oscillator circuit configured to provide a first local oscillator signal;
a radio frequency transmitter coupled to the local oscillator circuit and configured to send a first signal on a first carrier based on the first local oscillator signal;
a radio frequency receiver coupled to the local oscillator circuit and configured to receive a second signal on a second carrier based on a second local oscillator signal, of a same frequency as the first local oscillator signal, provided by the local oscillator circuit; and
a digital frequency converter coupled to the radio frequency transmitter and the radio frequency receiver, configured to provide a digital frequency conversion operation to compensate for a frequency difference between a center frequency of the first carrier and a center frequency of the second carrier.
