Baseband Analog Circuits for Software Defined Radio

By the end of this decade, a 4G wireless terminal will be available that provides high quality multimedia, personalized services, and ubiquitous multi—standard broadband connectivity with a reasonable power consumption. In this context, a multi—band transceiver is needed that provides a high—level of programmability while keeping low design complexity and costs. Software Defined Radio (SDR) is the most promising technology to implement such a terminal as it enables multi—mode reception by t...
