Abstract:
Ultra-WideBand (UWB) is an emerging broadband wireless technology enabling data rates up to 480Mb/s. To allow world-wide operability the WiMedia Alliance addresses three frequency band groups (BGs): BG1 (3168–4752MHz), BG3 (6336–7920MHz) and BG6 (7392–8976MHz) [1]. With an application as wireless USB, highly integrated all-CMOS SoCs offer competitive advantages over less integrated approaches. A single die PHY was presented in [2], covering BG1 only and implemented in 0.13µm CMOS. In [3], a radio-only solution covering the three BGs was presented, but the choice of BiCMOS makes it costly to add the digital baseband.
