Fully digital transmitters (DTXs) have the potential of replacing analog-intensive transmitter (TX) line-ups in future massive multiple-input and multiple-output (mMIMO) systems since they hold the promise of higher system integration level and energy efficiency. DTX operation ...
Recently, digital transmitters (DTXs) that feature arrays of controlled digital PA (DPA) cells have become increasingly popular since they directly benefit from nanoscale CMOS technology, yielding reduced die area and highly efficient operation [1] -[6]. For wideband applicati ...
This article presents the first application of a digital-intensive intrinsically linear digitally controlled class-E technique in a Doherty configuration. By careful nonlinear segmentation and multiphase RF-clocking along with overdrive-voltage control and automatic duty-cycle ...
A fully integrated RFDAC based phase modulator in 40nm bulk CMOS is presented. To boost in-band linearity and the frequency range of operation, a harmonic rejection RFDAC architecture that suppresses the 3rd and 5th harmonics is proposed. The achieved fre ...
The maximum achievable linearity of a digital polar transmitter (DPTX) is mainly constrained by two RF-DAC associated nonidealities; namely, aliasing of sampling spectral replicas (SSR) of the AM and PM signals, and the presence of nonuniform quantization noise. In this work, ...
