The emerging concept of multistandard radios calls for low-noise amplifier (LNA) solutions
able to comply with their needs. Meanwhile, the increasing cost of scaled CMOS pushes …

This paper proposes to merge an I/Q current-commutating mixer with a noise-canceling
balun-LNA. To realize a high bandwidth, the real part of the impedance of all RF nodes is …

The commercial potential of the 60 GHz band, in combination with the scaling of CMOS, has
resulted in a lot of plain digital CMOS circuits and systems for millimeter-wave application …

By the end of this decade, a 4G wireless terminal will be available that provides high quality
multimedia, personalized services, and ubiquitous multi-standard broadband connectivity …

Wireless communication is evolving towards multi-standard terminals that handle various
standards including those for cellular, WLAN and WPAN applications. Software-defined …

The proposed SDR downconverter is aimed for the DVB-H standard (470 to 862MHz) and
for emerging cognitive radio applications in the 200-to-900MHz band, which suffer from 3rd …

Transistors in aggressively scaled CMOS technologies have f T greater than 150 GHz, which
exceeds requirements for most existing commercial applications below 10 GHz. Excess …

Fully reconfigurable transceivers are required to answer the low-power high flexibility
demand of future mobile applications. This paper presents a fully reconfigurable G mC …

Wideband receivers are required for many applications including the upcoming software-
defined radio (SDR) architectures and ultra-wideband communication standards. These …

The ongoing evolution from 2G to 3G and beyond requires multimode operation of wireless
cellular transceivers. This paper discusses the design of an adaptive wireless receiver for …
