Abstract
High data rate applications are becoming more popular every day. A small die area and low power consumption filters are essential for RF front-end modules in order to achieve effective integration. This paper presents two small, on-chip bandpass filters (BPFs) for 5G mm-wave communication systems based on the second-generation current-controlled current conveyor (CCCII) using 32 nm carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFET). The whale optimization algorithm is used for optimizing the current cut-off frequency and port X parasitic resistance (RX) of the designed CCCII. The first filter is designed for the 5G n258 band, with a center frequency of 24.25–27.5 GHz, and the second one is designed for the 5G n260 band, with a center frequency of 37–40 GHz. The novelty of these CNTFET-based filters is that they are the first active filters, operating at the Ka-band frequency with low power consumption and a tiny size.
期刊介绍:
Prediction through modelling forms the basis of engineering design. The computational power at the fingertips of the professional engineer is increasing enormously and techniques for computer simulation are changing rapidly. Engineers need models which relate to their design area and which are adaptable to new design concepts. They also need efficient and friendly ways of presenting, viewing and transmitting the data associated with their models.
The International Journal of Numerical Modelling: Electronic Networks, Devices and Fields provides a communication vehicle for numerical modelling methods and data preparation methods associated with electrical and electronic circuits and fields. It concentrates on numerical modelling rather than abstract numerical mathematics.
Contributions on numerical modelling will cover the entire subject of electrical and electronic engineering. They will range from electrical distribution networks to integrated circuits on VLSI design, and from static electric and magnetic fields through microwaves to optical design. They will also include the use of electrical networks as a modelling medium.
