We present the monolithic design, fabrication and static properties of 850 nm wavelength AlGaAs–GaAs-based transceiver chips with a stacked layer structure of a VCSEL and a PIN photodetector. Bidirectional data transmission via a single, two-side butt-coupled multimode fiber (MMF) is thus enabled. The approach aims at a miniaturization of transceiver chips in order to ensure compatibility with ...

Abstract : In this article we describe one suitable approach that enables the designer to insert a boundary-scan and built-in-self-test concepts, as typical designfor-testability techniques in system-on-chip and multichip module embedded system design, for fault-effects detection. For transient error detection implementation of parity error detection into a 36-bit bus transceiver circuit (32-bi...

This paper proposes a methodology for modelling and simulation of RF systems in SystemC-WMS. Analog RF modules have been described at system level only by using their specifications. A complete Bluetooth transceiver, consisting of digital and analog blocks, has been modelled and simulated using the proposed design methodology. The developed transceiver modules have been connected to the higher ...

—In this paper, we propose an iterative transceiver design algorithm for opportunistic interference alignment in MIMO interfering multiple-access channels. The proposed algorithm iteratively optimizes the transmit beamforming vectors, the receive matrices and the user selection set, which digs into the multiuser diversity gain. Specifically, data transmission can be operated in each iteration ...

This paper presents the integrated circuit design of an ultra-wideband (UWB) transceiver for a wireless endoscope that enables real-time diagnosis with high resolution images. The implemented UWB transceiver is a non-coherent transmit reference (TR) architecture with differential binary phase shift Keying (DBPSK) modulation. All-digital pulse generator (PG) and merged radio frequency (RF) front...

Future communication needs to be ubiquitous, broadband, convergent, and seamless. Radio over fiber (RoF) technology is one of the most important enabler in access network for the technologies. Adoption of RoF faces bottleneck in optoelectronics, that they are still expensive, high power consumption, and limited in bandwidth. To solve the problem, transceiver in remote antenna unit (RAU) is deve...

We present a method for characterizing transceiver performance in parallel optical data links. By establishing a bidirectional link between two optically enabled chips, the conditions for a ring oscillator are made possible. We propose this technique as a means of measuring the sensitivity of transceiver latency to controlled variables such as temperature, optical output power, supply voltage, ...
