Author(s): Ethan Chou, Hesham Beshary, Nima Baniasadi, Ali M. Niknejad

Abstract:

This letter presents a wideband and low-power direct-downconversion 200 GHz receiver element for digital-beamforming applications implemented in 16 nm FinFET technology. Wideband and low integrated receiver noise figure of 9.8 dB across a 21 GHz baseband bandwidth is realized with a differential low-noise amplifier leveraging an active input balun stage, while wideband gain of 29 …

Frequency-Agile Self-Interference Cancellation in a Wideband Compact Full-Duplex Receiver Using Cascaded Low-Noise and High-Delay-Bandwidth-Product APFs

Frequency-Agile Self-Interference Cancellation in a Wideband Compact Full-Duplex Receiver Using Cascaded Low-Noise and High-Delay-Bandwidth-Product APFs 150 150
Author(s): Xingyu Ma, Wei Li, Shijiao Dong, Ruiyu Lyu, Fan Chen, Yunyou Pu, Chuangguo Wang, Hongtao Xu

Abstract:

Wideband self-interference cancellation (SIC) in a full-duplex (FD) system requires the cancellers to achieve flat nanosecond-scale RF delay while minimizing the noise penalty to the receiver (RX). This work proposes: 1) cascadable hybrid low-noise first-order all-pass filters (APFs) in the first tap of the RF canceller to reduce the noise figure (…

A Wideband Calibration-Free D-Band Passive Phase Shifter With Frequency-Invariant Codes Over 24% Fractional Bandwidth

A Wideband Calibration-Free D-Band Passive Phase Shifter With Frequency-Invariant Codes Over 24% Fractional Bandwidth 150 150
Author(s): Basem Abdelaziz Abdelmagid, Yuqi Liu, Hua Wang

Abstract:

This work presents a compact 110–140 GHz bidirectional D-band passive phase shifter based on combining a 5-stage capacitively-loaded reflective-type PS (RTPS) with a wideband 0°/180° stage. The design achieves a 360° phase range with a resolution of 11.25°. By applying: 1) a wideband RTPS design methodology on the stage level; 2) frequency/switching-staggering techniques among the …

A 1-8 GHz, 190MHz BB BW Mixer-First Receiver With Bootstrapped Mixer Switches Achieving Over 16dBm In-Band IIP3

A 1-8 GHz, 190MHz BB BW Mixer-First Receiver With Bootstrapped Mixer Switches Achieving Over 16dBm In-Band IIP3 150 150
Author(s): Erwin Hardeveld, Ronan van der Zee, Bram Nauta

Abstract:

In this article, we propose a wideband mixer-first receiver with improved in-band (IB) linearity. It uses bootstrapped N-path mixer switches to achieve a constant on-state gate–source voltage for large IB signals. We analyze the tradeoff between on-state resistance and off-state subthreshold current in conventional mixer switches and introduce a …

CORDIC-Less Digital Polar Transmitter Architecture Based on Delta-Sigma Modulator

CORDIC-Less Digital Polar Transmitter Architecture Based on Delta-Sigma Modulator 150 150
Author(s): Yuncheng Zhang, Zezheng Liu, Duo Li, Minzhe Tang, Yi Zhang, Hóngyè Huáng, Dingxin Xu, Waleed Madany, Ashbir Aviat Fadila, Wenqian Wang, Yuang Xiong, Daxu Zhang, Garry Pranata Kusuma, Hiroyuki Sakai, Kazuaki Kunihiro, Atsushi Shirane, Kenichi Okada

Abstract:

Conventional digital polar transmitters (TXs) suffer from limited power efficiency and linearity due to the multi-bit nature of intermediate signals. This work proposes a digital polar TX architecture that avoids such drawbacks by reducing the bit count of TX signals. The proposed TX oversamples and quantizes multi-bit I/Q inputs …

A Low-Power Blocker-Tolerant Wideband Receiver With Bias-Tunable Mixer and Effective Switch Resistance Compensation

A Low-Power Blocker-Tolerant Wideband Receiver With Bias-Tunable Mixer and Effective Switch Resistance Compensation 150 150
Author(s): Rundi Wu, Yetong Wang, Ran Hong, Zongle Ma, Kenan Xie, Fanyi Meng, Kaixue Ma, Keping Wang

Abstract:

This article presents a mixer-first blocker-tolerant receiver (RX) with effective switch resistance ( ${R} _{\text {SW}}$ ) compensation and high-Q selectivity. By analyzing the impact of non-ideal 1/N LO duty cycle and effective ${R} _{\text {SW}}$ on mixer-first RX, an effective ${R} _{\text {SW}}$ compensation technique is proposed to mitigate noise figure (…
