Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology has become one of the hottest topics in wireless communications, for it provides cost-effective, power-efficient, high bandwidth solution for relaying data in the immediate area (up to 10 meters). This work demonstrates two different solutions for the RF front-end designs in the UWB receivers, one is distributed topology, and the other is based on traditional lumped element topology. The distributed amplifier is one of the attractive candidates for UWB Low Noise Amplifier (LNA). The design, analysis and operation of the distributed amplifiers will be presented. A distributed amplifier is designed with Coplanar Waveguide (CPW) transmission lines in 0.25-[micron] CMOS process for time domain UWB applications. New design techniques and new topologies are developed to enhance the power-efficiency and reduce the chip area. A compact and high performance distributed amplifier with Patterned Grounded Shield (PGS) inductors is developed in 0.25-[micron] CMOS process. The amplifier has a measurement result of 7.2dB gain, 4.2-6dB noise figure, and less than -10dB return loss through 0-11GHz. A new distributed amplifier implementing cascade common source gain cells is presented in 0.18-[micron] CMOS. The new amplifier demonstrates a high gain of 16dB at a power consumption of 100mW, and a gain of 10dB at a low power consumption of 19mW. A UWB LNA utilizing resistive shunt feedback technique is reported in 0.18-[micron] CMOS process. The measurement results of the UWB LNA demonstrate a maximum gain of 10.5dB and a noise figure of 3.3-4.5dB from 3-9.5GHz, while only consuming 9mW power. Based on the distributed amplifier and resistive shunt-feedback amplifier designs, two UWB RF front-ends are developed. One is a distributed LNA-Mixer. Unlike the conventional distributed mixer, which can only deliver low gain and high noise figure, the proposed distributed LNA-Mixer demonstrates 12-14dB gain,4-5dB noise figure and higher than 10dB return loss at RF and LO ports over 2-16GHz. To overcome the power consumption and chip area problems encountered in distributed circuits, another UWB RF front-end is also designed with lumped elements. This front-end, employing resistive shunt-feedback technique into its LNA design, can achieve a gain of 12dB and noise figure of 8-10dB through 3-10GHz, the return loss of less than -10dB from 3- 10GHz at RF port, and less than -7dB at LO port, while only consuming 25mA current from 1.8V voltage supply.
Download or read book Wideband CMOS Receivers written by Miguel D. Fernandes and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book demonstrates how to design a wideband receiver operating in current mode, in which the noise and non-linearity are reduced, implemented in a low cost single chip, using standard CMOS technology. The authors present a solution to remove the transimpedance amplifier (TIA) block and connect directly the mixer’s output to a passive second-order continuous-time Σ∆ analog to digital converter (ADC), which operates in current-mode. These techniques enable the reduction of area, power consumption, and cost in modern CMOS receivers.

Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: The Bluetooth wireless technology is the worlds new short-range RF transmission standard for small form factor, low-cost, short-range radio links between portable or desktop devices. The technology promises to eliminate the confusion of cables, connectors and protocols confounding communications between today high tech products. In the first step a 2.45 GHz Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), intended for use in a Bluetooth receiver, has been designed in a standard 0.18 um CMOS process. The amplifier provides a simulated switchable forward voltage gain of +16 / -7.7 dB with a simulated noise Figure (NF) of only 3 dB while drawing 2.8 mA from a 1.8 V supply. The die area of the LNA (pads included) is 0.79 mm2. In the second step a 2.45 GHz Power Amplifier (PA), also intended for the Bluetooth standard, has been designed in the same 0.18 um CMOS process as for the LNA. The class-A PA achieves a simulated forward gain (S21) of 23 dB and a simulated output 1 dB compression point (P1dB ) of 5.5 dBm, with a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 23 % while drawing 15.8 mA from a 1.8 V supply. The die area of the PA (pads included) is 2.1 mm2.

Download or read book Low Power CMOS Wireless Communications written by Samuel Sheng and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low-Power CMOS Wireless Communications: A Wideband CDMA System Design focuses on the issues behind the development of a high-bandwidth, silicon complementary metal-oxide silicon (CMOS) low-power transceiver system for mobile RF wireless data communications. In the design of any RF communications system, three distinct factors must be considered: the propagation environment in question, the multiplexing and modulation of user data streams, and the complexity of hardware required to implement the desired link. None of these can be allowed to dominate. Coupling between system design and implementation is the key to simultaneously achieving high bandwidth and low power and is emphasized throughout the book. The material presented in Low-Power CMOS Wireless Communications: A Wideband CDMA System Design is the result of broadband wireless systems research done at the University of California, Berkeley. The wireless development was motivated by a much larger collaborative effort known as the Infopad Project, which was centered on developing a mobile information terminal for multimedia content - a wireless `network computer'. The desire for mobility, combined with the need to support potentially hundreds of users simultaneously accessing full-motion digital video, demanded a wireless solution that was of far lower power and higher data rate than could be provided by existing systems. That solution is the topic of this book: a case study of not only wireless systems designs, but also the implementation of such a link, down to the analog and digital circuit level.

Book excerpt: The world of wireless communications is changing very rapidly since a few years. The introduction of digital data communication in combination with digital signal process ing has created the foundation for the development of many new wireless applications. High-quality digital wireless networks for voice communication with global and local coverage, like the GSM and DECT system, are only faint and early examples of the wide variety of wireless applications that will become available in the remainder of this decade. The new evolutions in wireless communications set new requirements for the trans ceivers (transmitter-receivers). Higher operating frequencies, a lower power consump tion and a very high degree of integration, are new specifications which ask for design approaches quite different from the classical RF design techniques. The integrata bility and power consumption reduction of the digital part will further improve with the continued downscaling of technologies. This is however completely different for the analog transceiver front-end, the part which performs the interfacing between the antenna and the digital signal processing. The analog front-end's integratability and power consumption are closely related to the physical limitations of the transceiver topology and not so much to the scaling of the used technology. Chapter 2 gives a detailed study of the level of integration in current transceiver realization and analyzes their limitations. In chapter 3 of this book the complex signal technique for the analysis and synthesis of multi-path receiver and transmitter topologies is introduced.
