RF Transceiver and Wireless Calibration of On-Chip Frequency Reference for a True Single Chip Radio

摘要

An RF transceiver for operation near 24GHz with an on-chip antenna, fractional-N synthesizer and other RF and analog baseband circuits is demonstrated in 130-nm CMOS. A 5-m wireless link was demonstrated using a transceiver pair. A technique for wireless calibration of an on-chip frequency reference is also demonstrated.
