Multi-standard Multi-band Transmitter
My work team are responsible for designing Multi-standard Multi-band (GPS, GSM, Bluetooth and WiFi) Transmitter. Could you help me concerning where to start from (text books or so) as it's our first time for designing any TRx.
In other words, How to get theoretical background to be able to start designing a RF Transmitter?
Thanks in advance :)
GPS is not transmitting standard, it's just a GPS Receiver..
The other Tranceiver standards are using different modulation schemes and each standard has its own power levels,modulation scheme,data rate,time domain or frequency domain multiplexing.. etc etc..
You can not find a single device that performs all of those standards simultaneously.Each transceiver can be designed seperately and they can be lay down on a single substrate but it's quite tough...
True indeed. Generally speaking, a digital IQ modulated test generator would be able to produce most of the said standards, possibly including GPS, but I'm not sure what should be it's purpose. You can buy these generators from companies like Agilent.
Do you know any text books discussing System level design of RF Transmitters? I found chapter 4 in "RF Microelectronics, 2nd ed. by Razavi " but I want more or is it enough?
