Abstract

Thanks to nanoscale CMOS, the computational power of digital integrated circuits has increased tremendously. For wireless communication systems, this resulted in increased transmission speeds using complex modulation schemes. The speed of nanoscale CMOS allowed to integrate the analog RF transmitter together with the digital baseband and brought high bitrate wireless communication to the consumer. Complex modulation schemes have to be supported by performant RF transceivers though. The design complexity of the analog transceivers has increased while their scalability is poor. Furthermore, many transistor parameters are degrading for traditional analog techniques. Calibration is therefore essential to achieve the required performance in traditional transmitters, but this increased tunability also offers new opportunities. Concurrently, the speed of nanoscale CMOS brought the digital closer to the antenna and enabled a new transmitter architecture: the direct digital modulator, which comes with its own set of challenges and solutions.
