Low power consumption 2.4 GHz WLAN front-end module for a multiple radio handset

Abstract

Abslroct -A compact 5 x 6 x 1.4 mm3 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN (WLAN) front-end module (FEM) is presented. The FEM features low power consumpiion of 145 mA for 18 dBm output with 3% EVM at 54Mbps transmissions, < -170 dBm/Hz noise emission up to 2 GHz, and high out-of-band interference suppressions, able to support a multi-radio handset with simultaneous operations. The FEM has a 30 dB in-band gain, >24 dB transmitheceive (TIR) isolation under 1O:l mismatch, an integrated regulator, and a temperature compensated power detector. All these unique features provide an easiest integration of a WLAN radio into a multiradio handset.Index Terms -WLAN in cell phones, WLAN front-end module, WLAN power amplifier, WLAN T/R switch design,

TOA estimation of UWB backscattering RFID tag with dual pulse modulation for clutter suppression

“…Ideally, if $T_w\le T_d$ , no coupling occurs between the transmitting and receiving sections of the tag and in this case the transmitting and receiving antennas can be combined into one to simplify the hardware implementation 25. Else certain measures such as polarization mismatch should be taken to mitigate the coupling 26.…”

Novel dual‐band WLAN antennas with integrated band‐select filter for 802.11 a/b/g WLAN radios in portable devices

“…For most portable devices, it is difficult to implement the diversity antenna as Figure 1 due to limited space resulting in insufficient space for special diversity and high coupling between antennas [1]. In addition, some portable devices like PDA, cellular phones, and portable data processors may have more than one integrated radio.…”

“…For example, a bandpass filter made of half wavelength long sections of transmission lines has a second passband appearing approximately at twice the fundamental frequency [1]. Cascading additional bandstop filters is the most straightforward method to suppress the harmonics.…”

Robust ultra wideband time of arrival estimation for indoor localization applications

“…Ideally, when w d T T ≤ , no coupling occurs between the transmitting and receiving sections of the tag and thus in this case the transmitting and receiving antennas can be combined into one to simplify the hardware implementation. Else certain measures such as polarization mismatch should be taken to mitigate the coupling [87].…”
