CMOS Transmitters for 2.4-GHz RF Devices: Design Architectures of the 2.4-GHz CMOS Transmitter for RF Devices

摘要

The fully integrated complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) transmitter (Tx), an essential component in every wireless communication system, ensures highly efficient signal processing and data transmission. The performance of the Tx significantly affects the overall performance of the wireless device [1]. The demand for low-power, low-cost wireless devices operating at the 2.4-GHz band has led to extensive research on RF architecture and circuit design. A well-defined architecture, including linear and simple functional block synthesis, is crucial to the design of the RF Tx for various applications [2]. The state-of-the-art CMOS Txs proposed in the literature to improve Tx performance analyses are vital to understanding application-oriented RF Tx design techniques for further research.
