Digitally-Assisted Analog and RF CMOS Circuit Design for Software-Defined Radio

This book describes the state-of-the-art in RF, analog, and mixed-signal circuit design for Software Defined Radio (SDR). It details the most important general design approaches and features several real examples from the most recent research results.

Provides various approaches to realize a transceiver for a SDR using recent CMOS technology, in which fast and millions of transistors are available; • Covers entire transceiver circuit blocks, including receiver and transmitter front-ends, local oscillators, analog baseband, ADCs and DACs; • Offers analog/RF circuit designers a single-source point of entry to the state-of-the art in RF, analog, and mixed-signal circuit design for Software Defined Radio (SDR).
