This research is based on Ultra Wide Band (UWB) technology, in particularly for low-Rate applications such as sensor network, WPAN and WBAN (for the standard IEEE 802.15.4). The model and design of a non coherent receiver for UWB impulse radio communications has been completed. One of the most important factors in the UWB communications is the...

This paper presents a 130nm CMOS (HCMOS9 from ST-Microelectronics) 6.3 pJ/b ultra-low power energy detector circuit design and implementation. The designed energy detector is implemented with three blocks: the squarer based on a MOS transistor biased in the subthreshold region, the integrator based on a low pass amplifier and a decision...

This paper presents the design of a fully integrated pulse generator which allows BPSK modulation to be implemented. This emitter is based on the response filter architecture and has been integrated in a 130 nm CMOS technology with a 1.2 V supply voltage on a silicon area of 2.88 mm 2 . The bandwidth at -10 dB is about 1.8 GHz around 3.52 GHz....
