  • Modeling and simulation methods for RF MEMS VCOs

    Creator:
    Sankaranarayanan, Janakiram Ganesh
    Abstract:
    This work focusses on the modeling and the development of efficient coupled simulation techniques for MEMS based RF oscillators. High-level models for MEMS based varactors have been discussed and their accuracy issues are identified, based on comparisons with numerical simulations. A faster simulation approach based on the time-domain shooting method...

  • Ultra-low power receivers for wireless sensor networks

    Creator:
    Ayers, James S.
    Abstract:
    In wireless sensor network applications, low-power operation of the wireless receiver is critical. To address this need an ultra-low power Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK) receiver using the super-regenerative architecture is developed. A prototype receiver is built and tested for operation in the 900 MHz ISM band. Lab measurements show...
