This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless communication is a fundamental need in today's information society. While the total global data traffic grows continuously, the mobile portion increases twice as fast. In addition, even higher data rates are necessary for enabling, e.g., high-definition video streaming or mobile gaming. Both requirements put pressure on the efficiency of wireless communication systems since an increasing data rate and data volume consequently induce a higher power consumption and diminish the battery life of mobile powered devices even further. In this work, innovative solutions for radio frequency front-end transmit and receive monolithic microwave integrated circuits with high data rates and a low power consumption are investigated and developed. Based on insights of this thesis, it is believed that MMIC solutions with requirements on, simultaneously, power consumption and RF performance will play an important role in wireless communication and all sorts of other applications.

This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a full range of contemporary techniques for the design of transmitters and receivers for communications systems operating in the range from 1 through to 300 GHz. In this frequency range there is a wide range of technologies that need to be employed, with silicon ICs at the core but, compared with other electronics systems, a much greater use of more specialist devices and components for high performance – for example, high Q-factor/low loss and good power efficiency. Many text books do, of course, cover these topics but what makes this book timely is the rapid adoption of millimetre-waves (frequencies from 30 to 300 GHz) for a wide range of consumer applications such as wireless high definition TV, '5G' Gigabit mobile internet systems and automotive radars. It has taken many years to develop low-cost technologies for suitable transmitters and receivers, so previously these frequencies have been employed only in expensive military and space applications. The book will cover these modern technologies, with the follow topics covered; transmitters and receivers, lumped element filters, tranmission lines and S-parameters, RF MEMS, RFICs and MMICs, and many others. In addition, the book includes extensive line diagrams to illustrate circuit diagrams and block diagrams of systems, including diagrams and photographs showing how circuits are implemented practically. Furthermore, case studies are also included to explain the salient features of a range of important wireless communications systems. The book is accompanied with suitable design examples and exercises based on the Advanced Design System – the industry leading CAD tool for wireless design. More importantly, the authors have been working with Keysight Technologies on a learning & teaching initiative which is designed to promote access to industry-standard EDA tools such as ADS. Through its University Educational Support Program, Keysight offers students the opportunity to request a student license, backed up with extensive classroom materials and support resources. This culminates with students having the chance to demonstrate their RF/MW design and measurement expertise through the Keysight RF & Microwave Industry-Ready Student Certification Program. www.keysight.com/find/eesof-university www.keysight.com/find/eesof-student-certification

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation presents the design and implementation of circuits and transceivers in CMOS technology to enable many new millimeter-wave applications. A simple approach is presented for accurately modeling the millimeter-wave characteristics of transistors that are not fully captured by contemporary parasitic extraction techniques. Next, the integration of a low-power 60-GHz CMOS on-off keying (OOK) receiver in 90-nm CMOS for use in multi-gigabit per second wireless communications is demonstrated. The use of non-coherent OOK demodulation by a novel demodulator enabled a data throughput of 3.5 Gbps and resulted in the lowest power budget (31pJ/bit) for integrated 60-GHz CMOS OOK receivers at the time of publication. Also presented is the design of a high-power, high-efficiency 45-GHz VCO in 45-nm SOI CMOS. The design is a class-E power amplifier placed in a positive feedback configuration. This circuit achieves the highest reported output power (8.2 dBm) and efficiency (15.64%) to date for monolithic silicon-based millimeter-wave VCOs. Results are provided for the standalone VCO as well as after packaging in a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) substrate. In addition, a high-power high-efficiency (5.2 dBm/6.1%) injection locked oscillator is presented. Finally, the design of a 2-channel 45-GHz vector modulator in 45-nm SOI CMOS for LINC transmitters is presented. A zero-power passive IQ generation network and a low-power Gilbert cell modulator are used to enable continuous 360° vector generation. The IC is packaged with a Wilkinson power combiner on LCP and driven by external DACs to demonstrate the first ever 16-QAM generated by outphasing modulation in CMOS in the Q-band.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation has been mainly focused on reconfigurable mm-wave integrated circuits for next generation wireless communication systems (namely, 5G). One of the major approaches to making 5G a reality is the use of high-frequency signals in the millimeter-wave (mm-wave) frequency band to facilitate access to more bandwidth. This can deliver faster and more reliable data to more users. This dissertation contributes to making wideband, bidirectional, and scalable RFICs for high data rate point-to-point communications over large distances in mm-wave bands, particularly the E-band (71-76 GHz, 81-86 GHz). The E-band is a licensed band in the US, with 10 GHz of bandwidth allocated to low-cost, high-capacity, and point-to-point communication. For backhaul base-stations or air-to-ground communication, a scalable and large-element phased array is desired to acquire the appropriate isotropic radiated power and signal to noise ratio. Additionally, bidirectional operation supporting transmit (TX) and receive (RX) in a single aperture is desirable to minimize the area and save power. This dissertation has focused on new architectures for scalable, bidirectional, and wideband phased arrays using IBM\textquoteright s fastest SiGe technology, 90 nm. In this dissertation, the first E-band scalable phased-array transceiver is proposed based on coupled oscillator architecture. Coupled oscillator phased arrays have the advantage of low power and low complexity, resulting in an architecture that easily scales to the number of elements as multiple die can be aggregated to form a larger array through local oscillator (LO) power distribution and intermediate frequency (IF) power combining. However, silicon processes introduce undesirable parasitics and manufacturing tolerances to the transistor and passive devices. When multiple oscillators are present in a single die, the oscillators couple through the substrate. The substrate coupling introduces additional parasitic coupling paths between oscillators; this causes pulling and, consequently, amplitude and phase variation between the oscillators. In addition, the parasitics from the injection node to the substrate deviate the ILO performance from its ideal behavior. Conventional analysis of the amplitude and phase noise typically ignores the effect of the silicon substrate parasitic effects. This dissertation investigated the nonlinear dynamics of an injection-locked oscillator (ILO), where the effective circuit parameters of ILO performance were observed. More specifically, new amplitude and phase equations are derived that took into account the transistor\textquoteright s device parasitics and silicon substrate\textquoteright s parasitic coupling effects, including the transistor injection node parasitic capacitance ($C_{P}$), substrate parasitic conductive ($R_{sub}$) and dielectric ($C_{j}$) features. The derived models are compared with both the simulation and measurement results. The proposed 2x2 transceiver phased array block diagram described in this dissertation employs 4 injection-locked oscillators (ILOs) operating at a lower frequency range (in this case, 1/4 of the desired LO frequency), followed by a frequency quadrupler, to form a beam in transmit and receive modes. The bidirectional front-end is designed to operate at E-band within 3-dB bandwidth. Since the ILO-based phase shifting is technically challenging at millimeter-wave bands due to the parasitics of the injection circuitry and the oscillator phase noise trade-offs, the high-frequency limitations of the ILO phase shifter is considered and wide locking range and a less parasitic sensitive solution for current injection using folded-cascode architecture is proposed. The proposed ILO-based phase array architecture result in low phase noise and low channel to channel isolation supporting 6 Gb/s data rate at 256 QAM modulation. The conventional architectures of the E-band transceiver require a wide tuning range, around 10 GHz, for the LO signal and wide-bandwidth IF blocks. The wide-bandwidth requirement of LO and IF frequency for mm-waves increases the power consumption and complexity of the system. This dissertation proposes a novel architecture, named the \textquotedblleft Image-selection\textquotedblright{} E-band phased array. This new architecture makes the upper-band (81-86 GHz) and the lower-band (71-76 GHz) of the E-band spectrum images of each other in comparison to the LO signal, which is located at the center frequency (78.5 GHz). Therefore, an image rejection architecture is desired to select the wanted band while rejecting the other. The significant advantage of this architecture is that it only requires an LO with the quadrature phases within a tuning range lower than 1 GHz . This will relax the system design trade-offs to the circuit impairments. For bidirectional operation purpose and preventing use of quadrature generation circuitry at direct intermediate frequency (IF) or radio frequency (RF) signal paths, sliding-IF weaver architecture mixers are employed with the phase inverter in the divider path to select the upper or lower band. This architecture leads in to a flat conversion gain over the bandwidth and low amplitude and phase imbalance. The achieved QAM modulation data rate from this technique is the state of art,\lyxdeleted{najmebi}{Mon May 29 19:43:48 2017}{ } 9Gb/s (64 QAM) with less than 5\% EVM and 12 Gb/s (16 QAM) with less than 10\% EVM.

This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design techniques and procedures to improve performances of radio-frequency and millimeter-wave front-end integrated circuits were developed. Power amplifiers for high data-rate wireless communication applications were designed using CMOS technology employing a novel device resizing and concurrent power-combining technique to implement a multi-mode operation. Comprehensive analysis on the efficiency degradation effect of multi-input-single-output combining transformers with idle input terminals was performed. The proposed discrete resizing and power-combining technique effectively enhanced the efficiency of a linear CMOS power amplifier at back-off power levels. In addition, a novel power-combining transformer that is suitable to generate multi-watt-level output power was proposed and implemented. Employing the proposed power-combining transformer, a high-power linear CMOS power amplifier was designed. Furthermore, receiver building blocks such as a low-noise amplifier, a down-conversion mixer, and a passive balun were implemented using SiGe technology for W-band applications.
