According to the requirement on the market, products developed for DVB-H receivers in mobile handsets will be the next research topic. Since batteries are the main power sources of mobile handsets, the power consumption of the products is of primary concern. To achieve this goal, we develop a low-power RF front-end for DVB-H receivers in mobile handsets. The front-end consists of a variable-gain low-noise amplifier, a mixer, and a basedband variable-gain amplifier. First, we introduce the basic knowledge of RF fundamentals and some frequently used receiver architectures. The direct conversion architecture is chosen and the performance requirements of the constituent blocks are decided. A variable-gain low-noise amplifier incorporating Gm-boosting and noise-canceling techniques is designed to operate at low power consumption. Monolithic inductor is not required and the area can be greatly saved. A low power mixer and a basedband variable gain amplifier are designed for frequency downconversion and gain-adjustment, respectively. The gain can be varied linear-in-dB by using a quasi-exponential control method. The RF front-end is implemented in a 0.18μm CMOS technology and consumes less than 40mW from a 1.8V supply.Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Motivation 1 1.2 DVB-H System and Standards 2 1.3 Thesis Organization 5 Chapter 2 RF Fundamentals 7 2.1 Basic Concepts in RF Systems 7 2.1.1 S-Parameters 7 2.1.2 Stability 9 2.1.3 Noise 10 2.1.4 Sensitivity 13 2.1.5 Dynamic Range 13 2.1.6 Linearity 13 2.2 Receiver Architectures 18 2.2.1 Heterodyne Receiver 19 2.2.2 Homodyne Receiver 20 2.2.3 Low-IF Receiver 20 2.2.4 Dual-Conversion Receiver 21 2.2.5 Comparison of Receiver Architectures 22 2.3 Architecture and Specifications for DVB-H Receiver 23 2.3.1 Specifications for DVB-H 24 2.3.2 Building Circuit Block Specifications 27 Chapter 3 A Noise Canceling LNA For DVB-H Tuners 29 3.1 Introduction 29 3.2 Conventional Wideband Matching Technique 30 3.3 Noise Canceling LNA 32 3.3.1 Noise Canceling Principle 32 3.3.2 Gm Boosting Technique 34 3.3.3 A Noise Canceling LNA for DVB-H Tuners 37 3.4 Circuit Analysis 40 3.4.1 Matching 40 3.4.2 Gain Analysis 41 3.4.3 Bandwidth Analysis 42 3.4.4 Noise Analysis 43 3.5 Circuit Design 48 3.5.1 Design 48 3.5.2 Simulation Result 49 3.6 Experimental Results 52 3.6.1 Measurement Setup 52 3.6.2 Measurement Results 52 3.6.3 Layout and Die Photograph 55 3.6.4 Performance Summary 56 3.6.5 Conclusion and Discussion 57 Chapter4 A Low Power Mixer/VGA For DVB-H Tuners 59 4.1 Introduction 59 4.2 Mixer Design 59 4.2.1 Design of the RF Transconductor 60 4.2.2 Design of the LO Switching Pair 62 4.2.3 Design of the Complete Mixer 65 4.2.4 Mixer Simulation Result 67 4.3 VGA Design 68 4.3.1 VGA Circuit Topology 68 4.3.2 Offset Cancellation Loop 72 4.3.4 VGA Simulation Result 74 4.4 A RF Front-End Circuit for DVB-H Tuners 75 4.4.1 Architecture 75 4.4.2 Front-End Circuit Simulation Result 76 4.5 Experimental Results 77 4.5.1 Measurement Setup 77 4.5.2 Measurement Results 78 4.5.3 Layout and Die Photograph 80 4.5.4 Performance Summary 80 4.5.5 Conclusion and Discussion 81 Chapter5 Conclusion 83 Bibliography 856208266 bytesapplication/pdfen-US手提式數位電視射頻前端電路設計DVB-HRF front-end應用於手提式數位電視接收器之射頻前端電路設計Design of RF Front-End Circuitsfor DVB-H Receiversthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/57499/1/ntu-95-R93943075-1.pdf
