High Gain and Low Noise Single Balanced Wireless Receiver Front-End Circuit Design

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents a wideband wireless receiver front-end for 3.1-5.0GHz band group-1 (BG-1) WiMedia application. The front-end circuits are designed in 0.18um standard CMOS process. The experimental results show the maximum conversion power gain is 45.5dB; minimum noise figure is 2.9dB. Input return loss is lower than -9.3dB and output return loss is lower than -6.8dB. The maximum LO conversion power is 0dBm. 3dB working frequency is 1.9GHz (3.1GHz-5.0GHz) Total power consumption is 24.3mW including LNA, mixer and all buffers. Total chip area is 1.27mm2 including dummy and pads.
