Multicarrier waveforms have been commonly recognized as strong candidates for cognitive radio. In this paper, we study the dynamics of spectrum sensing and spectrum allocation functions in cognitive radio context using very practical signal models for the primary users (PUs), including the effects of power amplifier nonlinearities. We start by sensing the spectrum with energy detection-based wi...

ELECT A wideband low-noise amplifier (LNA) for long-term evolution applications is presented. A capacitive cross-coupled common-gate in combination with current-bleeding common-source topologies is adopted for wideband input matching, high gain and low noise figure (NF). Inter-cascade inductors are adopted to cancel the inter-stage parasitics, which extend input matching and operational bandwid...

power amplifiers (pas) are inherently nonlinear elements and digital predistortion is a highly cost-effective approach to linearize them. although most existing architectures assume that the pa has a memoryless nonlinearity, memory effects of the pas in many applications ,such as wideband code-division multiple access (wcdma) or orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (ofdm), can no longer b...

This paper discusses about systematic design approach of Reactance Compensated Class-E. The theory behind conventional Class-E is described then differences between Compensation explained and derived. reactance compensated gives better high efficiency bandwidth. range shunt capacitor value that can maintain operation also increases compared to overall impedance for derived shows it the same as ...

Power amplifiers (PAs) are inherently nonlinear elements and digital predistortion is a highly cost-effective approach to linearize them. Although most existing architectures assume that the PA has a memoryless nonlinearity, memory effects of the PAs in many applications ,such as wideband code-division multiple access (WCDMA) or orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), can no longer b...
