RF Front-End CMOS Receiver with Antenna for Millimeter-Wave Applications

Abstract

This article introduces integrated RF front-end CMOS receiver for millimeter-wave and biosensing applications. The proposed integrated RF front-end receiver consists of singlein differential-out (SIDO) low-noise amplifier (LNA), high linearity double-gate mixer, 3th-order loop bandpass filter, phaselocked loop (PLL) with a LC-tank voltage-controlled oscillates (VCO) and array antenna. The proposed integrated RF frontend CMOS receiver has been implemented in tsmc 0.18um CMOS technique.
