FM Transciever for Wireless Communication: RF Power Amplifier & Low Noise Amplifier

This thesis explains the design process of two subsystems of a radio transmitter and receiver. The goal of the project is to transmit audio over a distance using FM modulation. This report will focus on the power amplifier leading to the transmitting antenna and the low noise amplifier connected to the receiving antenna. A design process for a...

RF Amplifier Design Techniques for Linearity and Dynamic Range

This thesis presents circuit- and device-level linearization techniques to reduce the intermodulation distortion as well as the DC power consumption in RF amplifier circuits. As a key method to accomplish the research goals presented in Chapter 1, a so-called orthogonal design approach is introduced that allows for an uncompromised optimization...
