Design and measurements of a RF front-end for Bi-band simultaneous reception

In this paper, we explore spectrum field band simultaneous receivers, with a special emphasis on only one aspect of these systems – the radio front-end. We propose, to validate in the lab, a receiver scheme for the simultaneous down-conversion of two signals in different bands. Obviously, the dedicated scheme is intended for practical use in an integrated circuit. In this work, the chosen receiver is implemented with discrete components. A test set is evaluated and compared to simulations; it contains mostly standard lab equipment, processing signals, according to the receiver scheme; this receiver presents merits and it is worth demonstrating in an integrated circuit.In order to give credit to the use of this type of receiver, the EDA model and results have to be validated by measurement. Therefore, based on the receiver architecture dedicated to an 802.11/UMTS simultaneous dual-channel processing, we design and fabricate a prototype. Firstly, we measure the intrinsic metrics of this prototype in terms of noise figure, gain, linearity, phase and gain mismatch between the two branches of the quadrature mounted mixers. In the present work, we demonstrate that, for instance, as NF and IIP3 change with the RF front-end gain with the improvement of the RF front-end performance, the linearity and the noise requirements are well handled. Afterwards, these metrics are injected in the EDA receiver model and simulations are done in order to evaluate the BER evolution.

An adaptive weaver architecture radio with spectrum sensing capabilities to relax RF component requirements

This paper presents an architecture that utilizes spectrum sensing with a Weaver architecture receiver to ease the requirements on the RF front-end components. With the ability to sense the environment, large interferers that overwhelm small desired signals can be avoided. The learning and adapting capabilities are enabled by means of a flexible receiver architecture employing variable local oscillators (LOs) at RF and intermediate frequency (IF). Avoiding large interferers can reduce image rejection ratio (IRR) requirements for a given performance and results in a greater tolerance to the Q of filters and receiver mismatches. The design approach is applied to an IEEE 802.11a receiver and the results show that for a given performance level, the proposed design requires an IRR that is 40 dB less than that required for conventional Weaver receivers

Probabilistic greedy pursuit for streaming compressed spectrum sensing

This paper presents a probabilistic greedy pursuit(PGP)algorithm for compressed wide-band spectrum sensing under cognitive radio(CR)scenario.PGP relies on streaming compressed sensing(CS)framework,which differs from traditional CS processing way that only focuses on fixed-length signal’s compressive sampling and reconstruction.It utilizes analog-to-information converter(AIC)to perform sub-Nyquist rate signal acquisition at the radio front-end(RF)of CR,the measurement process of which is carefully designed for streaming framework.Since the sparsity of wide-band spectrum is unavailable in practical situation,PGP introduces the probabilistic scheme by dynamically updating support confidence coefficient and utilizes greedy pursuit to perform streaming spectrum estimation,which gains sensing performance promotion progressively.The proposed algorithm enables robust spectrum estimation without the priori sparsity knowledge,and keeps low computational complexity simultaneously,which is more suitable for practical on-line applications.Various simulations and comparisons validate the effectiveness of our approach.

Decoupled compensation of IQ imbalance in MIMO OFDM systems

The direct-conversion architecture is an attractive front-end design for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. These systems are typically small in size and provide a good flexibility to support growing number of wireless standards. However, direct-conversion based OFDM systems are generally very sensitive to front-end component imperfections. These imperfections are unavoidable especially when cheaper components are used in the manufacturing process and can lead to radio frequency (RF) impairments such as in-phase/quadrature-phase (IQ) imbalance. These RF impairments can result in a severe performance degradation. In this paper, we propose training based efficient compensation schemes for MIMO OFDM systems impaired with transmitter and receiver frequency selective IQ imbalance. The proposed schemes can decouple the compensation of the transmitter and receiver IQ imbalance from the compensation of the channel distortion. It is shown that the proposed schemes result in an overall lower training overhead and a lower computational requirement as compared to a joint estimation/compensation of IQ imbalance and the channel distortion.
