A checklist for designing RF-sampling receivers
نویسنده
چکیده
The modern, advanced CMOS direct radio frequency (RF)-sampling data converter has been eagerly awaited by system design engineers for several major end-equipment manufacturers. This includes manufacturers of communications infrastructure, software-defined radios (SDRs), radar systems, or test and measurement products. Recently introduced data converters are delivering the high dynamic range comparable to high-performance intermediate frequency (IF)-sampling data converters. Additionally, these converters integrate on-chip digital filtering (DDC), which reduces the output data rate from 3-4 GSPS sampling rate to something more manageable similar to traditional IF-sampling data converters.

Discrete-Time Receivers for Software-Defined Radio: Challenges and Solutions
CMOS radio receiver architectures, based on radio frequency (RF) sampling followed by discrete-time (DT) signal processing via switched-capacitor circuits, have recently been proposed for dedicated radio standards. This paper explores the suitability of such DT receivers for highly flexible softwaredefined radio (SDR) receivers. Via symbolic analysis and simulations we analyze the properties of...
متن کاملAn Overview of Radio Frequency Fingerprinting for Low-End Devices
RF fingerprinting is proposed as a means of providing an additional layer of security for wireless devices. A masquerading or impersonation attacks can be prevented by establishing the identity of wireless transmitter using unique transmitter RF fingerprint. Unique RF fingerprints are attributable to the analog components (digital-to-analog converters, band-pass filters, frequency mixers and po...
متن کاملInfluence of timing jitter on quadrature charge sampling
The influence of timing jitter on quadrature charge sampling for a direct conversion receiver has been evaluated. In contrast to voltage sampling, the charge sampling mixer integrates the signal current instead of tracking the signal voltage. The charge sampling mixer has been applied to RF direct sampling in wireless receivers. The influence of timing jitter on charge sampling has been analyse...
متن کاملDirect radio frequency sampling methodology for multiple signals in an energy-sparse spectrum
In software defined radio (SDR) systems, it is desirable to down-convert multiple RF signals simultaneously by placing an analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) as near the antenna as possible. Radio frequency (RF) subsampling is one of the established methodologies used by radio receivers to directly down-convert and digitize RF signals. In this paper, we propose a novel direct RF sampling method...
متن کاملMonolithic Integrated RF Front ends for Multi-GNSS receivers
The continuing expansion of available GNSS signals is an increasing challenge for receiver designers. New signals with expanded bandwidths are demanding greater sampling rates that require careful design of the receiver RF section to maximise performance tradeoffs. A high level of integration is required to preserve signal path integrity and minimise noise while keeping power consumption to a m...
