Abstract
In this paper, a wide locking range, quadrature output ring type injection locked frequency divider (ILFD) is presented for division ratios of 3 and 4. This ILFD proposes a novel injection scheme that shapes the injection signal to a proper form and provides a convenient situation for divider locking. Furthermore, two new wide locking range, low power consumption, injection locked ring oscillators (ILROs) are proposed for quadrature generation in local oscillator architectures. A novel cognitive radio quadrature local oscillator (LO) architecture is presented by utilizing the proposed ILFDs and ILROs to verify the effectiveness of the proposed circuits. Moreover, a new technique is implemented on the LO architecture to widen the frequency range without consuming any extra power. Because of using a single LC tank, this architecture is very compact. Also, it has the benefit of low power consumption and low output phase noise.
