This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultra-wideband (UWB) impulse-radio technology has unique features including high data-rate as well as low power consumption with ranging and localization capabilities. An UWB front-end, however, has to accommodate design challenges resulting from the exceptional wide bandwidth of several GHz. This book discusses the implementation issues of the UWB impulse-radio transceiver front-end, including the performance analysis of practical systems and the design of radio-frequency integrated circuits for transceiver front-ends. A general framework for performance evaluation of practical impulse radio system is proposed and demonstrated in scenarios of high-speed data communications as well as low-data-rate wireless body-area networks. An inductorless low- noise amplifier is designed with syncretic adoption of thermal noise canceling, capacitor peaking, and current reuse. The CMOS ransmit/receive switch design with highest reported bandwidth and power handling capability are discussed with customized transistor layout and triple-well resistive body- floating techniques. The prototypes have been demonstrated in state-of-the-art 130nm CMOS technology.

This book was released on 2015-07-25 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides readers with a state-of-the-art description of techniques to be used for ultra-low-power (ULP) and ultra-low-cost (ULC), short-range wireless receivers. Readers will learn what is required to deploy these receivers in short-range wireless sensor networks, which are proliferating widely to serve the internet of things (IoT) for “smart cities.” The authors address key challenges involved with the technology and the typical tradeoffs between ULP and ULC. Three design examples with advanced circuit techniques are described in order to address these trade-offs, which special focus on cost minimization. These three techniques enable respectively, cascading of radio frequency (RF) and baseband (BB) circuits under an ultra-low-voltage (ULV) supply, cascading of RF and BB circuits in current domain for current reuse and a novel function-reuse receiver architecture, suitable for ULV and multi-band ULP applications such as the sub-GHz ZigBee.

This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-range wireless communications continually attract interest from both industry and academia, and it is changing our life in every aspect in the last decade. The design of wireless transceivers is the bottleneck for a variety applications, due to RF modeling inaccuracy, stringent FCC regulations over the transmitted power spectrum, interference, multi-path reections, modulation scheme, receiver sensitivity, and synchronization. In addition, energy efficiency is always one of the most important design goals. Ultra-Wideband(UWB) is found to be very energy-efficient due to its low duty cycle and potentially high data rate due to its wide bandwidth. However, there still remain unsolved issues with UWB transceivers, such as pulse shaping, multi-path re ections, and receiver clock synchronization. To address these, novel techniques such as wireless multi-path equaliza- tion, pulse injection-locking for receiver clock synchronization, reconfigurable pulse shaping, low power wireless clock distribution, and an ultra-low-power super- regenerative receiver are implemented and verified on silicon. Three chips are designed and verified: a 3-5GHz Impulse-Radio(IR) UWB transceiver, a 3-60GHz al

Download or read book Ultra Low Power Transceiver for Wireless Body Area Networks written by Jens Masuch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-28 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) are expected to promote new applications for the ambulatory health monitoring of chronic patients and elderly population, aiming to improve their quality of life and independence. These networks are composed by wireless sensor nodes (WSNs) used for measuring physiological variables (e.g., glucose level in blood or body temperature) or controlling therapeutic devices (e.g., implanted insulin pumps). These nodes should exhibit a high degree of energy autonomy in order to extend their battery lifetime or even make the node supply to rely on harvesting techniques. Typically, the power budget of WSNs is dominated by the wireless link and, hence, many efforts have been directed during the last years toward the implementation of power efficient transceivers. Because of the short range (typically no more than a few meters) and low data rate (typically in between 10 kb/s and 1 Mb/s), simple communication protocols can be employed. One of these protocols, specifically tailored for WBAN applications, is the Bluetooth low energy (BLE) standard. This book describes the challenges and solutions for the design of ultra-low power transceivers for WBANs applications and presents the implementation details of a BLE transceiver prototype. Coverage includes not only the main concepts and architectures for achieving low power consumption, but also the details of the circuit design and its implementation in a standard CMOS technology.

Download or read book Radio Frequency RF Complementary Metal oxide Semiconductor CMOS Ultra Wideband UWB Transmitter and Receiver Front end Design written by Meng Miao and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The low-cost low-power complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) ultra wideband (UWB) transmitter and receiver front-ends based on impulse technology were developed. The CMOS UWB pulse generator with frequency-band tuning capability was developed, which can generate both impulse and monocycle pulse signals with variable pulse durations. The pulse generator integrates a tuning delay circuit, a square-wave generator, an impulse-forming circuit, and a pulse-shaping circuit in a single chip. When integrated with the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulator, the transmitter front-end can generate a positive impulse with 0.8 V, negative impulse with 0.7 V, as well as the positive/negative monocycle pulse with 0.6 -- 0.8 V, all with tunable pulse durations. The UWB receiver front-end including the template pulse generator, low noise amplifier (LNA), and multiplier was developed. The cascoded common-source inductively degenerated LNA, with extended ultra-wideband ladder matching network, as well as shunt-peaking topology, was selected to form the impulse-type UWB LNA. The structure-optimized and patterned ground shield (PGS) inductors were also studied and used in LNA design to improve the LNA performance. The maximum gain of 12.4 dB was achieved over the band. For the 3-dB bandwidth, 2.6 -- 9.8 GHz was achieved. The average noise figure of 5.8 dB was achieved over the entire UWB band of 3.1-10.6 GHz. The UWB multiplier based on the transconductor multiplier structure was investigated, with the shunt-peaking topology applied to achieve the pole-zero cancellation and extend the multiplier bandwidth from 2 GHz to 10 GHz. A low-cost, compact, easy-to-manufacture coplanar UWB antenna was developed that is omni-directional, radiation-efficient and has a stable UWB response. It covers the entire UWB frequency range of 3.1 - 10.6 GHz, with the return loss better than 18-dB. This novel uniplanar antenna was integrated with the developed CMOS tunable pulse generator to form the UWB transmitter front-end module. This UWB module can transmit the monocycle pulses and the signals having shape similar to the first derivative of the monocycle pulses, all with the tunable pulse durations. The proposed UWB front-ends have the potential application in short-range communication, GPR, and short-range detections.
