Book excerpt: In response to thousands of inquiries annually from individuals and groups wishing to start a low power radio station for broadcasting to local communities, the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) has adopted rules for a new, low power FM radio (LPFM) service. The service consists of two classes of LPFM radio stations with maximum power levels of 10 watts and 100 watts. The rules contain interference protection criteria to help ensure that the LPFM service protects and preserves the technical integrity of existing radio service. However, the main arguments against LPFM are based on concerns over interference with existing FM radio broadcasts, and the potential that LPFM might impede the future transition to digital audio broadcasting. Some Members are seeking to severely scale back or nullify the FCC's decision to issue LPFM licenses, while other Members support the FCC ruling. On April 14, 2000 the House passed the Radio Broadcasting Preservation Act of 2000 (H.R. 3439, amended), which would have the effect of eliminating about 75% of the number of potential LPFM licenses that could be granted by preventing licenses in the third adjacent channel to incumbent full-power FM broadcasters. Three bills have been introduced in the Senate: S. 2068 would prohibit the FCC from authorizing LPFM licenses; S. 2518 (later introduced in modified form as S. 2989) would permit the introduction of LPFM licenses while studying whether LPFM is causing harmful interference to full-power broadcasters; and S. 3020 is similar to the House-passed bill. Language similar to the House-passed bill was inserted into the FY 2001 District of Columbia Appropriations bill (H.R. 5547), which was incorporated in the Commerce, Justice, and State Appropriations bill (H.R. 4942) that passed Congress on December 15, 2000 (Conf. Rept. 106-1005), and signed into law (P.L.106-553) on December 21, 2000. This report will be updated as necessary.

This book was released on 2010-11-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless sensor networks have the potential to become the third wireless revolution after wireless voice networks in the 80s and wireless data networks in the late 90s. Unfortunately, radio power consumption is still a major bottleneck to the wide adoption of this technology. Different directions have been explored to minimize the radio consumption, but the major drawback of the proposed solutions is a reduced wireless link robustness. The primary goal of Architectures and Synthesizers for Ultra-low Power Fast Frequency-Hopping WSN Radios is to discuss, in detail, existing and new architectural and circuit level solutions for ultra-low power, robust, uni-directional and bi-directional radio links. Architectures and Synthesizers for Ultra-low Power Fast Frequency-Hopping WSN Radios guides the reader through the many system, circuit and technology trade-offs he will be facing in the design of communication systems for wireless sensor networks. Finally, this book, through different examples realized in both advanced CMOS and bipolar technologies opens a new path in the radio design, showing how radio link robustness can be guaranteed by techniques that were previously exclusively used in radio systems for middle or high end applications like Bluetooth and military communications while still minimizing the overall system power consumption.

This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hardly a profound observation to note that we remain in the midst of a wireless revolution. In 1998 alone, over 150 million cell phones were sold worldwide, representing an astonishing 50% increase over the previous year. Maintaining such a remarkable growth rate requires constant innovation to decrease cost while increasing performance and functionality. Traditionally, wireless products have depended on a mixture of semicond- tor technologies, spanning GaAs, bipolar and BiCMOS, just to name a few. A question that has been hotly debated is whether CMOS could ever be suitable for RF applications. However, given the acknowledged inferiority of CMOS transistors relative to those in other candidate technologies, it has been argued by many that “CMOS RF” is an oxymoron, an endeavor best left cloistered in the ivory towers of academia. In rebuttal, there are several compelling reasons to consider CMOS for wi- less applications. Aside from the exponential device and density improvements delivered regularly by Moore’s law, only CMOS offers a technology path for integrating RF and digital elements, potentially leading to exceptionally c- pact and low-cost devices. To enable this achievement, several thorny issues need to be resolved. Among these are the problem of poor passive com- nents, broadband noise in MOSFETs, and phase noise in oscillators made with CMOS. Beyond the component level, there is also the important question of whether there are different architectural choices that one would make if CMOS were used, given the different constraints.
