Design approaches for radio frequency (RF) analog realization of two-dimensional (2-D) network-resonant plane-wave filters are discussed. The plane-wave filters having potential applications in electronically scanned wideband beamforming scenarios operate in spatially-discrete temporally-continuous 2-D mixed-domain as described by their recursive input-output relationships. The proposed approaches...
An electronically steerable broadband radio frequency (RF) filter-sum beamforming filter using Is'-order all-pass filters is proposed. The beamforming filter has the 2-D transfer function Ha (zx, sct), which uses M-section cascaded Is'-order all-pass filters and analog combiners as building blocks. Beam steering is achieved by tuning the group delay of the all-pass filters via a control voltage. For...
Recent advances in silicon technology, mm-Wave integrated circuit/antenna/package design, and beam-forming techniques at 60GHz, together with the emergence of suitable wireless standards, have enabled consumer electronics products to support wireless transmission of multi-Gb/s data such as high-definition (HD) audio/video content. Further expansion into portable and mobile platforms will require lower...
To enable mass-market applications based on shortrange wireless communication around 60 GHz at datarates above 1 Gbps, cheap implementation technologies are needed. The radios for these applications often use antenna arrays with beamforming to improve the link budget. This work discusses the state-of-the-art on CMOS beamforming architectures and describes the different parts of a wireless link that...
A fully integrated receiver front-end circuit for a 4:1 time division multiplexing of RF signals from an antenna array is introduced. The switching necessary for multiplexing is implemented as an array of low noise amplifiers operating at 2.4 GHz with selectable outputs. The circuit includes on-chip input and output matching networks. A digital controller for rotating through the amplifier inputs...
This paper presents a scalable phased-array receiver system that covers a tritave bandwidth of 6-to-18 GHz implemented in a 130nm CMOS process. The single receiver element with a 10-bit phase shifting resolution achieves a maximum phase error of 2.5° within a baseband amplitude variation of 1.5dB for an arbitrary target angle. This dense interpolation provides excellent phase error/offset calibration...
