Item Active feedback supported CMOS LNA blended with coplanar waveguide-fed antenna for Wi-Fi networks(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2021) Roy, G.M.; Dwari, S.; Kumar Kanaujia, B.K.; Kumar, S.; Song, H.This study presents integration of complementary CMOS active feedback low noise amplifier with coplanar waveguide fed patch antenna for Wi-Fi networks. The LNA design-I, involves a cascode amplifier followed by active feedback common source amplifier offering wideband impedance matching with lowered parasitic losses. The inductor-less feedback mechanism is used to nullify noise effect with extended bandwidth in the range of 2.2 to 5.8 GHz and a peak forward gain of 22.5 dB. It is implemented on agilent's advance design system using 45 nm CMOS process. The noise figure (NF) is approximately 2 dB while the stability factors µ and µ prime are well above 1 dB with IIP3 of about 15 dBm. The chip area is 0.57 x 0.57 mm2 under dc power supply of 1V while power consumption of 0.8 mW. A CPW fed antenna design-II, achieves a wide band response similar to the bandwidth of LNA. The size of the fabricated antenna is calculated as 40 x 40 mm2. The peak gain is approximately 4.1 dBi at 3.9 GHz. The codesign-III, proposes a receiver achieving a much wider band of 1.6 to 6 GHz with a gain of 16.5 dB and NF of 2.59 dB at 2.06 GHz. The codesign improves the system integration by reducing overall chip area and offers saving in the effective cost. © 2021 The Authors.

The present work reports a 65-nm complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS)-based transimpedance amplifier (TIA) in an optical radar system for non-contact patient monitoring. A T-shaped microstrip line (MSL) integrated with variable gain common source TIA using MSL peaking technique and off-chip post-amplification integration is a newly proposed architecture to achieve a ultra-low noise, high dynamic range (DR) and high figure of merit over broadband than a traditional TIAs. First, the integrated T-shaped MSL develops an additional resonant frequency that resonates with a photodiode capacitance improving the bandwidth performance at higher Q values. Second, the shunt MSL peaking technique that introduces an additional conjugate pole-pair that cancels the effect of input capacitance helps to further improve the bandwidth of the TIA. Finally, an active feedback concept achieves a wide linear dynamic range enabling high TIA detectability. The proposed TIA realizes an impedance bandwidth of 770 MHz ranging from 7.12 to 7.89 GHz with a transimpedance gain of 105.1 dBΩ and ultra-low input-referred noise (IRN) density of 2.71 pA/√Hz. A high linear DR of 70 dB is achieved by employing a variable gain control scheme with a low group delay variation of 0.81 ns. The proposed work demonstrates a 1-Gb/s data rate while a bit-error rate less than 10−12 is achieved. The TIA consumes a power of 0.82 mW under the supply voltage of 1.2 V. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
