ISSCC 2008 / SESSION 10 / CELLULAR TRANSCEIVERS / 10 . 3 10 . 3 Equalization of IM 3 Products in Wideband Direct - Conversion

چکیده
As scaling reduces the breakdown voltage of CMOS devices and as system integration trends demand the further elimination of offchip components, there arises a great need to improve the linearity of RF receivers. Of particular interest is the direct-conversion architecture, which is currently the workhorse of the mobile telecommunications industry. Although much work has been recently reported in improving the IIP2 of these receivers, the IIP3 requirements still necessitate the use of an inter-stage SAW filter in many applications.

The ever growing volume of backplane communications pushes the data rate toward 20Gb/s for the next-generation transceivers. Over the years, chip designers have been seeking different data formats to overcome the loss of electrical channels. Among the existing solutions, duobinary signaling manifests itself in bandwidth efficiency as (1) its spectrum occupies only half as wide as that of NRZ da...
متن کاملThe Signal and Noise Analysis of Direct Conversion EHM Transceivers
A direct conversion modulator-demodulator with even harmonic mixers with emphasis on noise analysis is presented. The circuits consist of even harmonic mixers (EHMs) realized with antiparallel diode pairs (APDPs). We evaluate the different levels of I/Q imbalances and DC offsets and use signal space concepts to analyze the bit error rate (BER) of the proposed transceiver using M-ary QAM schemes...
متن کاملDigitally assisted equalization of third-order intermodulation products in wideband direct conversion receivers
An effective linearization technique capable of equalizing IM3 products resulting from an arbitrary out-of-band blocking scenario in a wideband direct conversion receiver is presented. IM3 products are regenerated in the RF analog domain of a low-power mixed-signal feedforward path and are used to cancel analogous signal terms in the original receiver at digital baseband via adaptive equalizati...

The frequency reference oscillator is a pivotal block in modern radio transceivers. Currently, modern transceivers rely on off-chip low frequency (<100MHz) quartz crystal reference oscillators [1]. Silicon micromechanical oscillators are suitable alternative to quartz crystal oscillators due to their small form-factor, higher frequency, and integration potential with ICs [2]-[4]. In multi-gigah...

The ever-growing volume of communication over backplane channels necessitates transceivers with equalization techniques. Among the existing solutions, transmit pre-emphasis manifests itself in its simplicity and accuracy. However, making it adaptive is not a trivial work due to the lack of eye-opening information from the receive side, unless a back channel or a bidirectional topology is includ...
