Beikmirza, M.R. (author), Shen, Y. (author), de Vreede, L.C.N. (author), Alavi, S.M. (author)This article presents a wideband, energy-efficient digital transmitter (DTX) suitable for multi-mode/multi-band wireless communication applications. It features various operation modes comprising Cartesian (Modes-1/-2) and multi-phase (Modes-3/-4) configurations utilizing LO clocks with different duty cycle in the interleaving/non...journal article 2023

Beikmirza, M.R. (author), Shen, Y. (author), de Vreede, L.C.N. (author), Alavi, S.M. (author)A 40nm CMOS wideband digital Cartesian push-pull inverted Doherty operating in class-E is presented. Wideband Doherty operation is achieved over a 1.9-to-3GHz frequency band, using an off-chip power combining network. The fully digital transmitter (DTX) provides 25.3dBm peak power with a drain/DTX line-up efficiency (DE/SE) of 58.7%/44.9%,...conference paper 2022

Alavi, S.M. (author), Staszewski, R.B. (author), De Vreede, L.C.N. (author), Long, J.R. (author)This paper presents a wideband 2 13-bit in-phase/quadrature-phase (I/Q) RF digital-to-analog converter-based all-digital modulator realized in 65-nm CMOS. The isolation between I and Q paths is guaranteed employing 25% duty-cycle differential quadrature clocks. With a 1.3-V supply and an on-chip power combiner, the digital I/Q transmitter...journal article 2014

He, J. (author)Currently the Doherty Power Amplifier (DPA) is replacing the traditional Class B amplifier in base-station and broadcast applications, as such becoming the preferred choice of industry due to its simplicity and high efficiency performance. In spite of its success, so far practical DPA implementations can provide only a very limited RF bandwidth,...master thesis 2013
