Abstract
Many ultra-wideband (UWB) systems are challenged by strong jammers and narrowband interferers. Using two antennas, we demonstrate a robust UWB radio frequency (RF) front-end design in a 0.25 μm mixed-signal complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The proposed realization is capable of adaptively removing a high-power, narrowband interferer early in the receiver chain avoiding front-end saturation and preserving UWB signal power. The early interferer removal resulting in interferer-free demodulation is based on the least mean squares (LMS) algorithm and achieved through a novel combiner low-noise amplifier and noise optimized filtering. Circuit level RF simulations of the proposed circuitry indicate a maximum improvement in signal-to-interference ratio of 39.6 dB.
