Current and future trends in the development of chipsets for 3G and 4G mobile handhelds call forachieving the highest performance/price ratio whichmeans the development of feature-rich multi-modewireless devices while maintaining the cost of addingmore features at a minimum. In this book, a novelcompact wireless radio transceiver architecturereusing a baseband chain so as to significantlyreduce the die area is proposed. To realize a highperformance direct conversion receiver for multi-modewireless communications, certain limiting factors inthe design should be identified and removed ormitigated. One of the main factors addressed in thisbook is the DC offset problem. Generation mechanismsfor DC offsets, both static and dynamic, are modeledand DC offset cancellation schemes are proposed. Thedesign of an analog baseband chain for the proposedcompact wireless transceiver is also presented. Thisbook is intended for radio and mixed-signal ICdesigners, graduate students in electrical andcomputer engineering as well as marketing and productmanagers of wireless chip sets.
