4 Q-enhancement in RF CMOS Filters Case Study: Direct Conversion Transmitters for UMTS Per Madsen, Industrial PhD student (EF 871), ISBN ISSN R The presented thesis, consisting of seven papers and an extended summery, has been submitted for evaluation for an industrial PhD. Industrial PhD Program The presented thesis documents the research project completed as a part of the Danish industrial PhD education. This education is administrated by the Committee on Industrial PhD Fellowship under the Danish Academy of Technical Sciences (ATV), and is financially supported by the Danish Agency for Trade and Industry under the Ministry of Business and Industry. Abstract The research project investigates the use of a Q-enhanced LC resonators in monolithic UMTS transmitters, implemented in a standard CMOS process. The project was started in the summer of At this time there was only limited available information about how to design transmitters for UMTS. UMTS transmitter performance is, among other things, specified by Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR) and Error Vector Magnitude (EVM). Relations between ACLR, EVM and various circuit imperfections are investigated through simulations and measurements using real UMTS signals and test equipment. The direct up-conversion transmitter is found to be the best architecture for integration on CMOS. However, it requires a bandpass filter with a pass band in the GHz range in order to meet requirements to noise in the downlink band. It is investigated how such an RF bandpass filter may be implemented on CMOS. Passive on-chip resonators can only be implemented with low Quality factor (Q) because of losses in on-chip inductors. It is possible to compensate for these losses with active circuits. Such a circuit is implemented using a topology, where transistors and capacitors are used to generate a negative differential conductance. An expression for the differential admittance of this circuit is derived and verified through measurements. The Q-enhancement circuit is used in an LC resonator designed for operation at 1950 MHz. The concept of Q-enhancement works fine, but the use of reactive components in the Q- enhancement circuit limits the freedom in the design of the resonator. The measured center frequency was 1850 MHz and the tuning range approximately 90 MHz. This could be recreated in simulations if measured data for Metal Insulator Metal (MIM) capacitors and varactors were used instead of the design kit provided by the foundry.

6 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU Preface The research project document in this thesis was made at the RF Integrated Systems & Circuit (RISC) group at Center for TeleInFrastruktur (CTIF) at Aalborg University. The research within RISC covers system analysis, chip design and analysis of single devices. The project was initiated in collaboration between Telital R&D Denmark, RISC and the Danish Academy of Technical Sciences (ATV). The project was planned to follow a line, starting with a thorough analysis how to design transmitters for UMTS. This system was chosen because Telital R&D Denmark was starting up the design of their first transmitter for UMTS when the project was planned. No system knowledge was available at the time and the project was hoped to remedy this. The official start of the project is 1 st of August However, Telital R&D Denmark did not receive their transmitter tester for UMTS before the spring of This meant that the system analysis could not be backed up with measurements before this time. The measurements did in fact prove an initial expression for IQ phase offset to be wrong and therefore caused a new version to be derived. The system analysis investigated a transmitter architecture for implementation on CMOS. A critical block in this architecture was selected to demonstrate if and how it could be implemented on CMOS. The system analysis was finished in the early winter of The conclusion was that a direct up-conversion transmitter was the best immediate choice. It required an RF bandpass filter to meet requirements to noise in the downlink band. This filter was selected for implementation in CMOS. It was known that the RISC group needed to change CMOS process from the beginning of the project. A test chip was submitted in the new process in the late spring of However, when the PhD student was ready to start the design in the spring of 2002, it had not yet arrived and it was decided to use a different foundry. The choice of Q-enhancement circuit was therefore based on simulations conducted with the design kit provided by the new foundry, even though it was not known how well this design kit matched reality. Newer the less a 2 nd order filter was designed and a layout containing this together with sub-circuits and test structures was submitted in the early summer of In the meantime Telital R&D Denmark got into financial difficulties. It was arranged that the PhD student could be transferred to Texas Instruments Denmark A/S in the summer of The first chip from the new foundry was received in the fall of 2002, but a manufacturing error meant that the transistors only had half the gain available in the design kit. Functional chips were received in December Investigations conducted during the spring and summer of 2003 revealed two major errors on the designed circuits that rendered the designed filter useless. After two more chip runs, the latest received in the fall of 2003, the Q-enhancement circuit was functional and the analysis presented in this thesis could be carried out. The presented thesis contains seven publications and an extended summery. Chapter 1 gives a short introduction to each paper, while chapter 2 to 8 make up the extended summery. Chapter 2 gives an introduction to the project, its background, aim and areas where the author believes his research has made significant contributions. Chapter 3 sums up and updates the system analysis. It is based on work published in [6, 4, 7, 5]. Chapter 4 investigates how the desired filter may be implemented with special emphasis on required Q and tuneability of the resonators. Chapter 5 investigates how resonators may be implemented. This section relies heavily on literature studies. Chapter 6 describes the Q-enhancement circuit designed in this project. It is PAGE 3

7 PER MADSEN based on [1, 2]. Chapter 7 describes an experiment where the Q-enhancement circuit is used in an LC tank, based on [3]. It also concludes on the usability of the proposed Q-enhancement circuit. The road through this project has been long and bumpy. With the help and understanding from many persons it has, never the less, been possible to reach a point where the presented thesis can be submitted.

10 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU 1 PUBLICATIONS This chapter gives a short introduction to the publications made during the PhD project. The papers address the two major topics of this project, which are system analysis of UMTS transmitters and the design of a Q-enhancement circuit. The chapter contains seven sections named after the title of the paper they describe. The sections are arranged in the order in which the papers were submitted. The description only includes the authors scientific contributions to the papers. 1-1 RF Requirements for UTRA/FDD Trancievers Authors: Per Madsen, Ole Kiel Jensen, Torben Amtoft, Ragner V. Reynisson, Jan H. Mikkelsen, Søren Laursen, Cristian R. Iversen, Troels E. Kolding Torben Larsen and Michael B. Jenner Place: Wireless Personal Multimedia Communications (WPMC), Aalborg, Denmark Time: September 2001 The analysis of the transmitter is based on the authors work. Overall requirements to the transmitter are determined from several factors. The specifications set requirements to EVM, ACLR and out of band noise, but the receiver sensitivity and the isolation in the duplex filter sets a requirement to how much noise the transmitter may emit in the downlink band. Overall requirements to IQ balance, inband ripple, local oscillator feed through and phase noise are set-up from the requirements to EVM. The ACLR requirement is converted to a specification of a 1 db compression point, as an simple relation between these parameters appeared to be present at the time of writing. A budget is set up for a direct conversion transmitter based on these requirements. It is found that an RF bandpass filter is required in order to suppress noise in the downlink band. 1-2 Simulating Overall Performance Requirements for Transmitters in IMT 2000 FDD User Equipment Author: Per Madsen Place: European Conference on Wireless Technology, London, England Time: September 2001 This paper investigates how a number of different circuit imperfections affect EVM and ACLR in transmitters for UMTS FDD. It sets up analytical expressions for these parameters in order to provide a simple means to make budgets. All the expressions are verified through measurements. The included parameters are: Quantization, IQ phase and amplitude imbalance, phase noise and linearity. It was found that phase and amplitude adjustments could improve EVM as function of IQ imbalance. Further more no simple relation between 3 rd order output intercept point or 1 db compression points and ACLR were found. PAGE 7

11 PER MADSEN The expressions for IQ imbalance has caused much interest in the public. So much in fact that the student later made a short document where the expressions were derived. This document was then handed to persons who made enquiries. 1-3 UTRA/FDD RF Transceiver Requirements Authors: Per Madsen, Ole Kiel Jensen, Torben Amtoft, Ragner V. Reynisson, Jan H. Mikkelsen, Søren Laursen, Troels E. Kolding, Torben Larsen and Michael B. Jenner Place: Wireless Personal Communications, Kluwer Academic Publishers Time: October 2002 The paper submitted to WPMC was selected for a reprint at Kluwer Academic Publishers: Journal of Wireless Personal Communications, special issue: Wireless Personal Multimedia Communications. Although the paper was a reprint it is shorter than the original paper. This meant that some adjustments had to be made to the contents. The major changes were made in the section describing the overall receiver requirements, which relies more on references in this paper. In the transmitter section an expression is presented, that describes how ACLR adds and the budget of 1 db compression points is replaced with an ACLR budget. This was done after it was found that no simple relation between ACLR and 1 db compression point could be established. 1-4 On the Design of a Differential Common Collector Negative Resistance Authors: Per Madsen, Torben Larsen, Jan H. Mikkelsen and Jens C. Lindof Place: 21 st Norchip Conference, Riga, Latvia Time: November 2003 This paper describes an experiment with a discrete implementation of a Q-enhancement circuit that the student believes to be very interesting for his application. Simulations indicated that the most often used Q-enhancement circuit would have difficulties in providing sufficient linearity for the desired application. Therefore a differential version of a circuit was implemented, whos single ended counter part in theory could be designed to perform better. However, the theory is based on simple representations of transistor parasitics. The paper presents an expression that includes more transistor parasitics to describe the differential admittance of this circuit. The paper focus on the verification of the expression. The circuit is therefore designed to operate at low frequencies and implemented using discrete components. This makes it possible to measure the components that are were used in the circuit with a high degree of accuracy. The new expression was found to be much more accurate than the more simple expression, whos equivalents are seen in the literature for single ended versions of the circuit. However, the match is not perfect. PAGE 8

12 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU 1-5 Simulation of EVM Due to Circuit Imperfections in UMTS/FDD Transmitters Authors: Per Madsen Place: Nordic Matlab Conference 2003, Copenhagen, Denmark Time: October 2003 This paper address the same general issues that were addressed in: " Simulating Overall Performance Requirements for Transmitters in IMT 2000 FDD User Equipment", but being submitted to a MATLAB TM conference, methodology and simulated results are also included. The paper includes effects of IQ phase and amplitude imbalance, phase noise, filtering and time offsets between phase and magnitude in polar modulators. It further more presents simulations of how several interferences combines. A new expression has been derived for IQ phase imbalance. The previous expression was based on an educated guess of the optimal phase compensation. The expression presented here uses an analytically calculated optimum. There were no significant difference between the results obtained with the two expressions. 1-6 An RF CMOS Differential Negative Resistance for Q-enhancement Authors: Per Madsen, Torben Larsen, Jan H. Mikkelsen and Jens Place: The 7 th International Conference on Solid State and Integrated Circuit Technology, Beijing, China Time: October 2004 This paper presents an implementation of the differential Q-enhancement circuit, presented in: "On the Design of a Differential Common Collector Negative Resistance", on RF CMOS. The paper shows simulated and measured 2-port S-parameters and describes the steps necessary to obtain the reported fit. The paper further more reports the obtained differential admittance divided in conductance and equivalent capacitance. Here measured results are compared with simulations and estimates made using the more detailed expression presented in: "On the Design of a Differential Common Collector Negative Resistance". The circuit is capable of providing a differential conductance at -2.8 ms and an equivalent capacitance of approx 1 pf at 2 GHz with a current consumption of 32 ma. However, the most interesting result of the paper is that the described method enables the expression to estimate the admittance with less than 20 % error. 1-7 An RF CMOS Q-enhanced LC Resonator Authors: Per Madsen, Torben Larsen, Jan H. Mikkelsen and Jens C. Lindof Place: 22 nd Norchip Conference, Oslo, Norway Time: November 2004 This paper presents and example of how the Q-enhancement circuit presented in: "An RF CMOS Differential Negative Resistance for Q-enhancement" may be used in a on chip LC res- PAGE 9

The inductor is implemented with four windings and symmetry around the bias feed point. The differential inductance is in the order of 5.6 nh, while the conductance is 2 ms. It was found that a 3-port representation of the inductors was required to make simulated S-parameters fit measurements. The varactors were implemented with nfets. The design kit was found not to simulate weak accumulation mode well, so measurements on stand alone circuits were used instead. This provided an accuracy of 3 MHz between simulated and measured resonance frequency. The Q-enhancement circuit was found to compensate the LC-resonator, while consuming a total of 6.9 ma. The Q-enhancement circuit is thus more than capable of compensating for losses in the resonator. PAGE 10

14 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU 2 INTRODUCTION The presented PhD thesis documents a project that was started in August At this time new standards for mobile telecommunications such as Universal Mobile Telecommunication Standard (UMTS), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) and Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE) were emerging. These standards enables high data transfer rates, which in tern enables new types of applications like video streaming, Moving Pictures Expert Group layer 3 (MPEG 3) sound, exchange pictures, etc. to run on mobile User Equipment (UE). 2-1 Background The project conciders two major topics. System analysis and RF CMOS design. This section gives a short introduction to why these two topics were considered in the project. The project was started as Telital R&D Denmark started the design of its first UMTS transmitter. The project was initiated in order to provide knowledge about how to design a transmitter for UMTS. Telital R&D Denmark had no experience with parameters like Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) and Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR), which are used to specify transmitter performance in UMTS [1]. It was therefore necessary to know how different circuit imperfections in the transmitter affect these parameters. The ideal transceiver for design and manufacture of low cost mobile equipment would have to be implemented as one component. Such a transceiver would reduce time spent on Radio Frequency (RF) design and increase production yield. An increase in complexity is needed to support the new capabilities provided by the high-speed digital standards. One way to handle this increased complexity without an equivalent increase of complexity of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is to implement several types of circuits on the same chip. This is denoted System On Chip (SoC). SoC is excellent to combine digital circuits, but analog circuits can also be added. To obtain the full advantage of SoC, no external circuits, except for the relevant transducers like speaker, microphone, video camera, etc. and battery, should be required. This implies that the radio circuits are fully integrated on the chip with only one connection to the antenna. The project uses the design of a UMTS transmitter as a case study for RF circuit designs intended for SoC. 2-2 Research Topics The research activities the project goes in two directions. (i) A thorough system analysis is made on the UMTS transmitter. It establishes how design parameters, such as phase noise, In-phase and Quadrature (IQ) imbalance, linearity, - etc. affect EVM and ACLR. This is used in an analysis of transmitter architectures in order to find out how a UMTS transimitter for Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) can be implemented. This part of the project is concluded with a specification of the blocks in an architecture that is believed to be suitable for SoC. (ii) The transmitter is expected to be implemented on Complementary Metallic Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) as this is a relative cheap process that is well suited for digital circuits and hence SoCs. However component tolerances and poor quality in on-chip inductors make vital PAGE 11

15 PER MADSEN RF circuits inefficient. In this project one circuit that is critical for the selected transmitter must be implemented on a standard CMOS process. 2-3 Scientific Contribution The research contributions of this project are represented through the papers described in chapter 1. This section draws the up the areas in which the project, to the knowledge of the author, has provided scientific contributions. EVM and ACLR were unknown to Telital R&D Denmark when the project was started. A search in the literature revealed only little material on this topic. Major scientific contributions from this work are the expressions that relate IQ amplitude and phase imbalance to EVM. The project tests expressions derived by both the author and others against measurements conducted with true W-CDMA signals and test-equipment. The latter is important in order to ensure that assumptions made on the signals are valid. Telital R&D Denmark did not know how to make transmitters for UMTS, when the project was started. Vendors suggested heterodyne up-conversion, but this project has shown that direct up-conversion or polar modulation are probably better choices. It was found that the transmitter noise in the down link band is the major problem with direct (and heterodyne) upconversion transmitters. An RF bandpass filter must be inserted before the Power Amplifier (PA) to meet requirements to this noise. The RF bandpass filter was chosen for implementation in CMOS. Q-enhanced LC resonators were found to be best suitable for this application. The application in the transmitter sets particularly harsh requirements to linearity and this has caused the author to implement a Q-enhancement circuit that is not normally used in differential applications. A detailed expression for the differential admittance of this circuit has been set up and verified through measurements on implemented circuits.

16 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU 3 CASE STUDY: UMTS TRANSMITTERS This chapter addresses system aspects of transmitters for UMTS. It is based on [16, 14, 17, 15] and demonstrates how a transmitter for UMTS can be designed. The analysis starts with an investigation of overall requirements the transmitter. These requirements are converted to specifications of the performance of individual blocks in a selected transmitter architecture. This investigation includes an analysis of how circuit imperfections affect measured parameters, such as EVM and ACLR [1]. The investigation is based on FDD steady state operation for UMTS-FDD transmitters for power class III band I [1], but some results may apply to other modes as well. The up-link band is defined from 1920 MHz to 1980 MHz and the down link band from 2110 MHz to 2170 MHz. 3-1 Overall Transmitter Requirements This section describes the requirements to UMTS transmitters. These requirements are dictated by the specifications [1] together with the performance of the duplex filter and the receiver Duplex Filter The UMTS-FDD system operates in full duplex. This means that the transmitter branch (Tx) and receiver branch (Rx) may be active at the same time. Therefore the two branches must have access to the antenna at the same time. A duplex filter allows this as illustrated in Figure 1. The duplex filter separates the two signals in the frequency domain with filters, but complete separation can not be achieved. Some Tx power will leak to the Rx branch, due to limited attenuation in filters and cross talk between the Rx and Tx traces. This is indicated with "Tx leakage" in Figure 1. FIGURE 1: Functionality of the duplex filter. Up-link and Down-link is separated, but some Tx leakage to the Rx branch can not be avoided. The isolation between Rx and Tx is important for the performance of the receiver, because both the high power up-link signal and transmitter noise in the Rx band interferes with the receiver [16]. However the isolation in the duplex filter has to be weighted against insertion loss. Table 3.1 lists the amount of insertion loss and isolation to be expected in duplex filters for UMTS [19, 3]. PAGE 13

Frequency band Attenuation [db] Tx - Antenna 1920 MHz < f < 1980 MHz < 2 Antenna - Rx 2110MHz < f < 2170MHz < 2 Tx - Rx Isolation 1920 MHz < f < 1980 MHz > MHz < f < 2170 MHz > Requirements at the Transmitter Output The requirements to the transmitter output signal are based on the specifications for UMTS- FDD [1] and the requirement to transmitter noise leakage to Rx in [16, 17]. [16] presents a receiver noise budget, where the noise contribution in the Rx band is assumed to -111 dbm/3.84 MHz. It is assumed that a duplex filter can provide 44 db isolation in the Rx band [19, 3]. The specifications allow the transmitter to leak -60 dbm/3.84 MHz to the antenna in the Rx band [1], but the transmitter must generate no more than -67 dbm/3.84 MHz in order not to degrade the receiver significantly [16]. Assuming that the duplex filter defined in Table 3.1 is used, the requirements to the steady state output signal of the transmitter are as presented in Table 3.2. The spectrum emission mask is defined to match ACLR and requirements made by systems operating on neighbour frequency bands [5, 6, 4]. It is introduced to ensure co-existence with other systems, operating at bands where the ACLR measurement makes no sense [5, 6, 4]. If nothing is indicated, it is assumed that the spectral emission mask requirements are meet if the ACLR requirements are meet. This is in agreement with observations made during measurements on PAs. Both EVM and peak code domain error describe the signal quality [1]. EVM describes the ratio between the averaged error power in the transmitted signal and the averaged power of the equivalent error-free signal as expressed by Eq. (5) in [15]. Peak code domain error expresses how the error is distributed in the code domain [12]. The error signal is de-spread with all codes in the domain [12]. Code Domain Error (CDE) is the ratio between the power of the error signal, de-spread with one code, and the power of the error free signal [12]. If the error signals are mutually uncorrelated and evenly distributed over all the codes, there is a simple relation between CDE and EVM [7, 23]: ( EVM 2 ) CDE = 10 log 10 SF (3.1) where EVM is expressed in decimal scalars and SF is the spreading factor. Peak code domain error is specified as the largest of the CDE values, measured on a signal where the spreading codes are 4 chips long [1]. EVM is specified to 17.5 % so according to Eq. (3.1), CDE should be db. However the uplink spreading code are not completely orthogonal so some margin PAGE 14

19 PER MADSEN must be added [7]. Hence -15 db is used [7], but this is approximately the same noise to signal ratio that is required to achieved an EVM of 17.5 %. This means that the requirement to peak code domain error is meet if the transmitter meets the EVM requirement, even if all the power in the error vector is projected on to one code. Peak code domain error is thus ignored in this analysis. 3-2 Transmitter Architectures This section investigates which kind of transmitters may be used for UMTS and which requirements are made to the functional blocks in the particular transmitter. The signal modulation is a limiting factor, when it comes to choosing a suitable transmitter architecture. The W- CDMA up-link signal contains both amplitude and phase information. This means the modulation loop used for GSM can not be used, because it can not transfer the amplitude information. The most commonly suggested architectures for UMTS are direct up-conversion, heterodyne up-conversion, digital Intermediate Frequency (IF) and polar modulation [18, 24, 11, 22, 2, 20]. In the heterodyne transmitter up-conversion takes place in two stages. In-phase and Quadrature (IQ) components are modulated to some IF and then mixed to the desired frequency [18]. The use of an IF means that the modulator can work on frequencies lower than where the transmission takes place. This may improve the accuracy of the IQ phase offset, but bandpass filters are required both at IF and RF [18]. It is possible to design modulators for direct conversion with sufficient precision of IQ to meet the EVM requirements [24, 13]. The main advantage of the heterodyne transmitter is thus not relevant for the UMTS transmitter, and the use of an extra filter makes it less attractive than other architectures. In the digital IF architecture, the signal is converted to analog at IF. This means that the modulation of the IQ components is done digitally [11, 22]. The digital approach has the potential of being more versatile and exact than the analog counter parts [11, 22], but the digital to analog converters (DAC)s need to run at high frequencies to keep aliasing products from appearing in the uplink band or neighboring bands, where requirements to noise are particularly harsh. The same aliasing products cause the need for an IF bandpass filter. As was the case for the heterodyne transmitter, the advantages of the digital IF architecture are not relevant for the UMTS transmitter. The remaining two architectures are exposed to more thorough investigations Direct Up-conversion The Direct up-conversion transmitter is illustrated in Figure 2. The IQ components are converted directly to the desired frequency in the Quadrature Up-Converter (QUC). The gain is adjusted at RF in a Variable Gain Amplifier VGA [2] and in some cases the PA. Some filtering is required before the PA in order to ease requirements to the duplex filter [16]. Finally the PA amplifies the signal to the desired level. Compared to the heterodyne transmitter this architecture saves circuits, but it also sets more PAGE 16

The 90 phase shift in the modulator must be made at RF, and the Local Oscillator (LO) should run a frequency outside the Tx band, to make it less sensitive to interference from the transmitted signal. The following describes which kind of requirements ACLR, EVM and out of band spurious emissions sets to the blocks in the direct conversion transmitter. The presented work is based on material published in [16, 14, 13, 15] and additional work performed by the author. Budgets have been updated to fit reported state of the art performance. All the circuits in the transmitter are non-linear and thus contribute to the overall ACLR. The PA will typically be the largest contributor, because the signal power is highest here. There is no simple relation between ACLR and the parameters most often used to describe non-linear performance [14]. Therefore ACLR is specified for each block [8, 21, 17]. Assuming that the contributions are mutually uncorrelated, the total ACLR generated by n cascaded circuits (ACLR T ) can be found from the ACLR of circuits 1 n (ACLR m m=1,2,...,n ) using [17]: ACLR T = 1 n ACLR 1 m=1 m (3.2) where ACLR is represented in scalars. However, due to the nature of non-linear distortion, the clause that the contributions must mutually uncorrelated may not apply. The expression was therefore verified experimentally for different ranges of ACLR. IQ signals were converted to RF in a Signal Generator (SG) and then amplified with first one amplifier (AMP 1 ) and then two amplifiers in cascade (AMP 1 and AMP 2 ). The power into the amplifiers was controlled with attenuators and both ACLR at f C ±5 MHz (ACLR 1 ) and EVM were measured. ACLR 1 and EVM was also measured on each amplifier and the SG alone, while exposed to the signals faced during the tests. Eq. (3.2) is used to estimate the cascaded ACLR. In Table 3.3 the results are compared with cascaded measurements. ACLR is averaged from measurements on f C +5 MHz and f C -5 MHz. It is seen that Eq. (3.2) is a good estimate for levels of ACLR up to the required 33 db, while the estimate becomes worse as ACLR increases further. The error is still less than 1 db and might originate from changing measurement setups for for individual amplifiers and cascaded PAGE 17

Although it can not be concluded that the contribution to ACLR are mutually uncorrelated, Eq. (3.2) can be used to make a budget for ACLR. This is done in Table 3.5. The ACLR reported in [21] is used for the PA. The budget is made so that a total of 34 db is obtained for ACLR 1 and 44 db for (ACLR 2 ), which is defined as the ACLR at f C ±10 MHz [17]. EVM combined by several parameters may be expressed in a similar manner [15]. If n contributors to EVM are mutually uncorrelated, the combined EVM (EVM C ) is [15]: EVM C = n EVM 2 i (3.3) i=1 It has been demonstrated that Eq. (3.3) does not apply to very non-linear cascaded stages like hard limiters [10]. It is therefore investigated if the circuits in the transmitter are sufficiently linear for Eq. (3.3) to apply. EVM was measured during the experiment with cascaded power amplifiers described above. The results are listed in Table 3.4. TABLE 3.4: Cascaded EVM. The cases in this table refer to the cases in Table 3.3 Case Unit Individual EVM SG %. AMP % AMP % Combined EVM Measured % Eq. (3.3) % It is seen that Eq. (3.3) estimates EVM well, even when the requirements to ACLR are violated heavily as in cases 5 and 6. Cascaded ACLR can therefore be related to cascaded EVM. The work presented in [14, 15] is vital for budgeting EVM. EVM owing to IQ amplitude (EVM AIQ ), PAGE 18

22 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU phase imbalance (EVM PIQ ) and RMS phase noise (EVM PN ) can be expressed by [15]: EVM AIQ EVM PIQ = A (A + 1) 100% (3.4) ( ( ϕ )) 2 cos 100% (3.5) 2 EVM PN 2 2 cos(φ) 100% (3.6) where A is IQ amplitude offset ratio, ϕ is IQ phase offset from 90 and φ is the RMS phase error on the LO. There is a correlation between ACLR and EVM in a non-linear device [14]. For an ACLR of 33 db, EVM is approximately 2.5 % [14]. [24] reports an A of 0.3 db and a ϕ of 0.5 deg and the GSM specifications prescribes RMS phase noise of maximum 5 deg. This performance combines to an EVM of 9.25 % with phase noise being the largest contributor. The achieved EVM leaves a margin of 14.8 % for DACs and filtering, before the specified 17.5 % is reached. Noise is the real killer in this architecture [16]. Requirements to the IF filter depends on the power delivered by the DACs. This is because noise power levels and not signal to noise levels are specified. Too much gain amplifies the noise floor to critical levels, even if the circuits were noise less. Duplex filters have improved compared to the one used in [16] and PAs with of 26 db gain and a Noise Figure (NF) of 5 db are reported [8, 21]. This means that the gain budget and hence filter requirements should be re-evaluated. In Table 3.5 new budgets for inband gain, noise and ACLR are set up for the direct up-conversion transmitter in Figure 2. It assumes that the DACs deliver -15 dbm of signal power. The noise requirement to the filter is adjusted to TABLE 3.5: Budgets for gain, noise and ACLR for the functional blocks in Figure 2. functional block QUC VGA FI PA Gain [db] NF [db] ACLR ± 5 MHz [db] ACLR ± 10 MHz [db] ensure that the transmitter meets requirements to noise from 1805 MHz to 1880 MHz. In this budget the filter is required to attenuate the Rx and Rx-image bands by 15 db compared to the inband gain, while the NF at these bands is less than 15 db. Increased NF in any of the blocks must be compensated by either increased power from the DACs or attenuation in the filter. To omit the filter completely, the DACs must deliver -1 dbm of power, but this is assumed not to be realistic. The direct conversion transmitter therefore still requires a bandpass filter to meet requirements to noise in UMTS downlink, as concluded in [16, 17], but the requirements to the filter have been relaxed because of improved separation in the duplex filters. PAGE 19

23 PER MADSEN Polar Modulation In the polar modulator the amplitude information is applied at RF. The PA is the best place to apply the amplitude information, because it can be done power efficiently with a switched PA and the remaining RF parts only handle constant envelope signals [20]. This is illustrated in Figure 3, where a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) is used to apply the phase information to an RF signal. The figure employs an up-conversion loop well known from GSM today, but any control system that is capable of applying the phase information to the VCO should work. This is illustrated by including a part of the up-conversion loop in the digital block. FIGURE 3: Functional diagram of the polar modulation transmitter. The polar modulator is sensitive to the same errors as the direct up-conversion transmitter, but it has the advantage that a power VCO, also known from GSM, may be used. This means that only limited gain is needed at RF, which means that the output noise may be reduced. Further more the remaining circuits only add little to ACLR if the amplitude information is applied at the PA. However a timing offset between phase and amplitude information introduces non-linearity and hence affects ACLR [20, 9]. In order to investigate this an experiment was made, where phase information was separated from amplitude information and converted to RF in a signal generator. The amplitude information was then added using a VGA with a very short settling time. ACLR and EVM were measured using signals where different time offsets were introduced between phase and amplitude. The results for ACLR are shown in Figure 4, where they are compared to simulations conducted in MATLAB TM. ACLR 1 is averaged from measurements on channels ±5 MHz from f C, while ACLR 2 is averaged from measurements on channels ±10 MHz from f C. The simulations only includes timing offsets. It is seen that the simulations indicates close to ideal behavior when no timing offsets are applied. The measurements shows significant ACLR even at the optimal time offset, but as the time offset is increased, the measured ACLR 1 becomes increasingly close to the simulations. This indicates that the simulations are right, but that other factors than time offsets are significant in the measurements. It is also noticed that PAGE 20

It was found that ACLR 2 could be improved to 45.9 db where ACLR 1 was largest, if the phase information was filtered with a 3 rd order Butterworth filter with a cut off frequency of 3.5 MHz, before it was applied to modulator. An equivalent comparison between time offsets and EVM is made in figure 5. Here the match between simulations and measurements is also good. EVM [%] : Simulations : Measurements Time offset [ns] FIGURE 5: Simulated EVM as function of time offset between phase and magnitude information. The Power Spectral Density (PSD) of the spectral regrowth caused by the time offset was different from that caused by intermodulation. In this case the PSD was distributed more evenly across the neighbor channels. This may cause problems with the spectral emission mask. An offset of 16.3 ns generated an ACLR 1 of 33.2 db and an ACLR 2 of 43.9 db in the simulations. PAGE 21

25 PER MADSEN The resulting power spectrum (PS) is integrated over bands of 30 khz or 1 MHz as specified in Table 3.2. In Figure 6 the integrated values are compared to the spectral emission mask defined in Table 3.2. PSD [dbm] : Mask : Signal Offset from f C [MHz] FIGURE 6: Simulated spectrum mask with time offset of 16.3 ns, which makes ACLR db and ACLR db. f C is the center frequency and the PSD is integrated over 30 khz or 1 MHz, depending on the offset from f C, as defined in [1]. It is seen that the mask is violated at -9 MHz from f C. This behavior means one should measure both ACLR and spectrum emission mask when dealing with polar modulators. The experiment has demonstrated that timing offsets between phase and amplitude information cause spectral regrowth. However the envelope was applied at RF by changing the gain in a VGA in this experiment. The most power efficient way to apply the envelope is to use a switched PA [20]. Switching is known from GSM to cause spectral regrowth as well, but it remains to see how much noise power this generates in the downlink band. 3-3 Conclusion The direct up-conversion transmitter and polar modulator have been investigated. The polar modulator has potential advantages when comes to output noise, but it remains to be seen how a switched PA behaves outside the desired band. The presented experiment indicates that more factors than time offsets are important. The author therefore assesses that more research needs to be done on polar modulators before all advantages and disadvantages with this architecture can be uncovered. The direct up-conversion transmitter requires an RF filter to meet the requirements to noise in the Rx band. Monolithic filters have been a subject of investigation for many years (see chapter 5). Therefore much information is available on this topic, although most of the publications aim at applications in receivers. Even though the polar modulator may become a relevant alternative in time, the direct upconversion transmitter is the architecture that is best suited for integration on CMOS at the time of writing. It is therefore decided to devote the remainder of the project to designing RF filters on CMOS for use in the direct conversion transmitter. PAGE 22

28 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU 4 FILTER TRANSFER FUNCTION Chapter 3 investigates if direct conversion transmitter can be used for UMTS. It is found that an RF bandpass filter must be inserted in front of the PA to reduce transmitter noise in the UMTS Rx band. This chapter investigates how the required attenuation may be obtained. The UMTS Tx signal may mix with noise and create significant mixing products in the UMTS Rx band when passed through the PA [5]. The filter must therefore suppress noise in both the UMTS Rx band and the UMTS Rx image band. The UMTS Tx band is defined from 1920 MHz to 1980 MHz, while the UMTS Rx band is defined from 2110 MHz to 2170 MHz [1]. The UMTS Rx image band starts at 1670 MHz and ends at 1850 MHz. The filter must provide the gain and attenuation listed in Table 4.1 in these bands. The filter transfer function may also distort the transmitted signal and thus add to the resulting EVM [6, 4]. The budget for EVM made in chapter 3 allows the filter and the DACs to generate a combined EVM of 14.8 %. There is therefore plenty of margin for EVM, but being the result of two unknown contributions, this can not be used to specify a requirement to the filter alone. However, the EVM generated by the filter remains important and must be considered. The requirements to the filter are listed in Table 4.1. TABLE 4.1: Recapitulation of filter requirements. Parameter Requirement Unit Gain at MHz > 3 db Attenuation at MHz > 12 db Attenuation at MHz > 12 db NF in the UMTS Tx band < 10 db NF in the UMTS Rx band < 15 db NF in the UMTS Rx image band < 15 db ACLR ± 5 MHz > 45 db ACLR ± 10 MHz > 50 db Two different approaches to obtain the required attenuation are considered. Approach I involves maintaining the same filter transfer function no matter which Tx channel is used. This is illustrated in Figure 7a, where one filter transfer function is illustrated together with the PSD of modulated signals at three different center frequencies f C1 3. In approach II the center frequency of the filter is tuned to match the Tx channel in use. This is illustrated in Figure 7b, where the PSD of the modulated signals from Figure 7a are repeated again. Here the center frequency of the filter is changed to match those of the signals. In both cases some frequency adjustment may be necessary because of tolerances of on-chip components. The precision with which the frequency must be tuned may be different for the two approaches. This chapter investigates how the attenuation specified Table 4.1 can be obtained with the two approaches. Emphasis is put on: The number of resonators required to obtain the filter transfer function. The quality factor (Q) required in the resonators. PAGE 25

29 PER MADSEN FIGURE 7: Illustration of the two considered approaches. a: Approach I - the same filter transfer function is used for all transmit channels. b: Approach II - the filter transfer function is tuned to always provide maximal gain at the transmit channel. The amount of EVM that results from the filter transfer function. Required frequency resolution and range of frequency adjustment. In this thesis quality factor is defined as the ratio between center frequency and the half power bandwidth [2, 3]. 4-1 Approach I In approach I the same filter transfer function is used for all the Tx channels. It is possible to design filters with almost constant gain in the Tx band. However, such filters require higher order than filters with inband gain fluctuation to provide the required attenuation. Therefore 3 db inband fluctuation is allowed in the filter transfer function although this may increase EVM. The fluctuation is specified by upper and lower limits to the inband gain. This is illustrated in Figure 8, where the maximum gain in the Tx band is increased to 6 db and minimum gain is 3 db as defined in Table 4.1. Figure 8 also shows the required 12 db attenuation at the UMTS Rx and UMTS Rx image bands, but more attenuation is welcome here if available. The filter transfer function is therefore confined to the area marked with hatchings in Figure 8. FIGURE 8: Requirements to filter transfer functions designed for approach I. PAGE 26

30 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU Required Number of Resonators Design of filters with standard transfer functions is described very well in text books [2, 7]. The required order may be calculated from lowpass prototype transfer function approximations, that transforms to bandpass transfer functions as described in [2, p ]. The resulting bandpass transfer function is symmetric around the center frequency. In this work the transformation is used to obtain lowpass prototype transfer functions approximations based on the requirements in Figure 8. However, to make the bandpass transfer function symmetrical, 12 db attenuation is assumed at 2050 MHz instead of 2110 MHz. The required order of Butterworth and Chebyshev approximations are found using the procedures in [2, p ], and verified in MATLAB TM. The results are listed in Table 4.2. Since the filter transfer functions must be implemented with orders of integer numbers, the nearest integer above the calculated values are used. TABLE 4.2: Order required of lowpass prototype approximations to provide the desired attenuation. Approximation type Order according to [2] Order according to MATLAB TM Butterworth Chebyshev The 2 nd order lowpass prototypes in Table 4.2 transform to 4 th order bandpass filters. There are two ways of representing a bandpass transfer function in the s domain [2, 7]: H(s) = G 2 n=1 s 2 (s p n ) (s p n) = G n=1 s s 2 + s ω 0n Q n + ω 2 0n (4.1) where p n and p n are complex conjugate poles that describe the transfer function of one resonator. The n th set of poles is obtained from the n th pole in the lowpass prototype approximation. G is a constant that adjusts the filter gain, ω 0n - 2πf 0n, where f 0n is the centre frequency and Q n is the quality factor of the n th resonator. Coefficients for the 2 nd order lowpass prototype transfer functions are found in tables [2]. They are converted to the desired bandpass transfer function using MATLAB TM implementations of the transformations described in [2] Required Q and Tolerances on Centre Frequencies Section shows that both 2 nd order Butterworth and Chebyshev approximations provide the required attenuation. The fact that the calculated order is not an integer, indicates that there is some tolerances on the filter bandwidth and centre frequency. This translates to tolerances on f 0 and Q in the resonators. The tolerances are investigated through the cases listed in Table 4.3, where the f 0 and Q required of each resonator is calculated for extreme cases using MATLAB TM. Case (a) to (e) are all Butterworth bandpass approximations. Case (a) is the target function. It is designed for a 3 db bandwidth of 66 MHz. Cases (b) and (c) are designed for extremes of PAGE 27

In cases (g) and (f) the frequency tolerances from cases (d) and (e) are applied, so f 0 of the two resonators are closest together (f) and furthest apart (g). In each case Eq. (4.1) is used to force the Q of the resonators to values that keep the transfer function in the area marked with hatchings in Figure 8. The gain characteristic of transfer functions (a), (f) and (g) are plotted in Figure 9 together with the limits defined in Figure 8. 5 Gain [db] g f a Frequency [MHz] FIGURE 9: Gain characteristic of transfer functions (a),(f) and (g) implemented in MATLAB TM as specified in table 4.3. The dashed lines represent the limits for the transfer functions specified in Figure 8. The center frequency of the resonators changes approximately 6 MHz over the cases. This would indicate that the frequency should be adjustable within 6 MHz. However, the Q must be regulated between 31.5 and 46 with unity precision in order to keep the transfer function in the area marked with hatchings in Figure 8. The precision of Q may be relaxed if the precision of the center frequency is increased. PAGE 28

32 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU Estimated EVM The transfer functions in section are checked for EVM. The MATLAB TM environment used in [4] is used to simulate EVM for these transfer functions. The transfer functions must meet the requirements at all extremes of f 0 and Q. The simulations must therefore include all the cases in Table 4.3. In UMTS the raster on f C is 200 khz [1]. Every possible value for f C should be tested, but since the transfer functions change little over 200 khz, the raster is increased to 1 MHz in this investigation. The largest EVM is obtained in case (c) for f C equal to 1922 MHz. Here EVM is simulated to 2.9 % and estimated to 3.6 % using the approach described in [6]. Therefore approach I is not expected to cause any problems with EVM. 4-2 Approach II Recall that the purpose of the filter is to attenuate noise in the UMTS Rx and UMTS Rx image bands. The most harsh requirements are made when the smallest obtainable duplex frequency is used. This happens when the transmitter operates at the highest Tx channel, while the receiver operates at the lowest Rx channel. In this case noise at 1850 MHz mixes to the Rx channel. In approach II it is acceptable to attenuate the part of the Tx band that is not used. This means that the 12 db attenuation must be obtained 130 MHz from the pass band, in stead of 70 MHz as required in approach I Required Order The concept of changing f 0 with the carrier frequency allows for the use of filters with one resonator of relative high Q or the use of several resonators with more moderate Q, operating close to the same frequency. The latter solution requires that the resonators are isolated from one another to work efficiently. To enable comparison with approach I, transfer functions with both one and two resonators are included in this investigation Required Q and Tolerances on Center Frequencies The transfer function of a filter with one resonator may be expressed in the same manner as the transfer function with two resonators in Eq. (4.1). This representation enables the design of a transfer function from the knowledge of desired f 0 and Q alone. The transfer functions are designed in the MATLAB TM environment used in section 4-1. The gain characteristics of several transfer functions with one resonator are shown in Figure 10. These transfer functions are designed with f 0 at (a) 1922 and (b) 1978 MHz. Tolerances of 3 MHz are added to f 0 at 1978 MHz. Both the gain and Q are adjusted so an average gain of 3 db and the required attenuation is obtained. It appears that a Q of 45 is required to achieve this. Transfer function (a) must provide at least 12 db of attenuation at 1730 MHz. This is achieved with the suggested Q. Similar investigations are made for a filter transfer function that employs two resonators operating at the same frequency. Again a tolerance of 3 MHz is allowed on f 0 and Q are adjusted until the required attenuation is obtained for f C equal to 1978 MHz. In this PAGE 29

Dashed lines indicate limits specified in Figure 8. case a Q of 17.5 provides the required attenuation. The Q found for transfer functions with both one and two resonators represent minimum requirements. Less strict tolerances may be obtained if higher Q values are used Estimated EVM The MATLAB TM environment used in Section 4-1 is also used to estimate EVM of the transfer functions suggested here. The transfer functions do not change much in the desired band, as f C is shifted. Significant differences in EVM are therefore only expected when frequency tolerances are applied. The simulations are therefore restricted to transfer functions designed for f C of 1978 MHz. EVM is simulated and estimated to less than 1 % using [6] with 3 MHz frequency tolerances. This approach will therefore not cause significant contributions to EVM. 4-3 Conclusion This chapter investigates the design of filter transfer functions that provide the attenuation required in the system analysis in Chapter 3. Approaches where the transfer function is kept constant and where it is tuned to match the carrier frequency are investigated. The first approach requires two resonators with Q up to 46. The second approach requires one resonator with a Q of 45. In both cases f 0 must be tunable with a precision better than 6 MHz. The second approach offers a solution that uses half the resonators. Requirements to noise and ACLR should therefore also be easier to meet with this solution. The penalty for is this tuning range. Both resonators must have tuneable center frequencies because of device tolerances, but the second approach has to add at least 60 MHz to that in order to follow the carrier of the signal. None of the approaches are expected to generate significant amounts of EVM. The choice must therefore be made according to the penalties for generating the required Q and what the tolerances are on the CMOS devices used in the resonators. PAGE 30

Chapter 4 concludes that a Q up to 46 is required in order to achieve the attenuation specified in chapter 3. The investigation presented here is based on a literature study and documents achievements so far. The literature considers gyration-c, recursive resonators and Q-enhanced LC resonators for use in radio frequency filters. First their functionality is described and then a comparison of theoretical dynamic range of the different resonator types is presented. 5-1 Implementation of resonators This subsection presents the three types of resonators considered in the literature Q-enhancement In Q-enhancement losses in resonators are compensated by adding a circuit with a negative impedance. Q-enhancement may be applied to single components or larger circuits like the one illustrated in Figure 11a. Ideally this resonator has infinitely high Q, but losses in the inductors and resistive loads limit the achievable Q. In Figure 11a losses are modelled with a parallel conductance G 0. Ignoring for a moment Y NE the total impedance of the resonator circuit is [12]: jω 1 Z(ω) = C (jw) 2 + jω G 0 C + 1 LC where ω = 2πf. The center frequency and Q in this LC resonator are found by [12]: (5.1) ω 0 = 1 LC = 2πf 0 (5.2) 1 G 0 ω 0 L (5.3) Q 0 = ω 0C G 0 = where ω 0 = 2πf 0 and f 0 is the resonance frequency of the LC resonator. Assuming that Y NE has the conductance: G NE and no reactive part, the effective Q at f 0 can be found by substituting G 0 with G 0 G NE in Eq. (5.3). Literature reports implementations of Y NE with transistors in the configurations illustrated in Figures 11b to h [9, 3, 17, 14, 8, 19, 16, 4, 21, 13, 5, 2]. FETs are used as in this section, but the circuits also work with BJTs. If only the trans-conductance (g m ) of the transistors is considered, the input admittance of the circuits in Figure 11b and c is [9]: Y NEb,c = 1 Z NE = 1 Z 1 + Z 2 + g m Z 1 Z 2 (5.4) It is seen that Z NE has a negative real part if Z 1 and Z 2 have of the same type of reactance i.e. inductive or capacitive [17, 9, 3]. Although [3, 17] describe these circuits, actual implementations PAGE 33

The admittance of the circuits in Figure 11d, e and f is [9, 8]: 1 Y NEd,c,e = + g [ ( mz 2 = [Z 1 + Z 2 ] Z )] 1 1 (5.5) Z 1 + Z 2 Z 1 + Z 2 g m Z 2 The circuits only produce negative conductance if Z 1 and Z 2 represent reactance of different types and if Z 1 > Z 2. The circuits presented so far use reactive components to help generate the negative admittance. This means that the admittance also has a reactive part and that the negative conductance changes with frequency. Figures 11g and h show examples of how a negative conductance may be obtained without the use of reactive components. Assuming that the two transistors are perfectly identical the admittance is [9]: Y NEg,h = g m 2 While the circuit in Figure 11g implements a single-ended negative admittance, the circuit in Figure 11h implements a differential negative admittance. The circuit in Figure 11h is by far the most popular and different versions are found in [16, 4, 21, 13, 5, 2, 9]. Most of these references report performance of filters rather than LC-tanks. The center frequencies are MHz where Q of are reported in single resonator filters, but only [21, 2] use CMOS. Here Qs of 80 at 830 MHz and 50 at MHz are reported. (5.6) Gyration-C Filters implemented using gyration-c (also referred to as g m -C) resonators are quite popular in the literature [9, 10, 6, 11, 20, 22, 18]. The great advantage of this type of implementation is that no on-chip inductors are required. This saves die area and makes the circuit cheaper to manufacture than LC resonators. The inductive part is generated through impedance transformation of a capacitance. Figure 12 illustrates how a resonator may be designed from an ideal PAGE 34

38 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU gyration-c circuit. The gyration-c circuit is marked by the dashed box in Figure 12. It consists of minimum two trans-conductances, denoted g m1 and g m2, and one capacitor denoted C g. C is the capacitive part of the resonator and R L is a resistive load. FIGURE 12: Resonator circuit implemented using a simple gyration-c circuit. The dashed box marks the gyration- C circuit. The impedance of the gyration-c circuit is: Z g = jωc g g m1 g m2 (5.7) From Eq. 5.7 it is seen that the ideal gyration-c circuit generates an inductance L g equal to C g /(g m1 g m2 ) and an infinitely high Q [22, 10]. The gyration-c circuit is sensitive to parasitics in the transistors [18, 22, 20] and un-intended phase shifts [10]. Such imperfections limit the achievable Q [18, 22, 10] and a possible resistive load decreases the Q of the resonator further. Assuming that the resistive load is the major contributor to Q degradation, the impedance of the resonator in Figure 12 is: Z(ω) = jω 1 C (jw) 2 + jω 1 R L C + g m1g m2 C g C (5.8) and ω 0 and Q for a gyration-c resonator are therefore: ω 0 = Q = gm1 g m2 (5.9) C g C gm1 g m2 C g C CR L (5.10) For g m = g m1 g m2 and C g = C, ω 0 and Q reduces to g m /C and g m R L respectively. The transconductance thus influence both the center frequency and Q in this resonator. Reports of successful implementations are rare. [9] reports Q of 1000, achieved in a narrow band at 4.8 GHz using GaAs-MESFETs and a Q from achieved from 1.5 GHz to 1.8 GHz in a GaAs HBT process. In both cases Q is calculated from the equivalents to Z g in Figure 12, measured with S-parameters. No RF implementations on CMOS are reported, but [20] reports simulated Q of 41 at 900 MHz in a 0.35 µm CMOS process. PAGE 35

39 PER MADSEN Recursive Filters Recursive filters use feedback and gain stages to generate the transfer function of a resonator. Gain stages are most often represented with Operational Trans-conductance Amplifiers (OTAs) in the literature [7, 1, 15]. [7] holds an extensive analysis of Recursive filters implemented by OTAs. A difference OTA is defined as shown in Figure 13a [7, p 349]. Figure 13b-e show four different ways to implement a second order bandpass resonator using the OTA defined in Figure 13a. The resonator in Figure 13b employs a passive resonator circuit in the feedback path with an impedance of Z R. The remaining resonators are all build from a general Tow-Thomas filter structure [7, p ]. FIGURE 13: a: simplified model for the used OTA. b-e: four examples of recursive filters implemented by OTA blocks. The transfer function of the resonator in Figure 13b is: H b (ω) = V OUT (ω) V IN (ω) = Z R(ω)g m + 1 (5.11) If the non-compensated LC resonator, introduced in subsection 5-1-1, is used as feedback circuit, Z R is equal to Eq. (5.1) and the transfer function is: H b (ω) = (jω) 2 + jω 1 C (G 0 + g m ) + 1 LC (jω) 2 + jω G 0 C + 1 LC (5.12) It is not possible to obtain less than unity gain with H b (ω). This means that attenuation only can be obtained with this filter, if it is applied before or after the resonator. The problem of limited attenuation is not seen in the resonators in Figure 13c, d and e. The PAGE 36

40 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU transfer function for these implementations may be expressed by [7, p 356]: H n (ω) = N n (ω) (jω) 2 + jω g m3 C 2 + g m1g m2 C 1 C 2 (5.13) where n refers to the name of the circuit in Figure 13 and N n for the respective circuits are: N c (ω) = jω g m2 C 2, N d (ω) = jω g m1 C 1, N e (ω) = jω g m3 C 2 According to [7], the nominator of circuit c should be the same as that for circuit b. However, analytical calculations verified in HP-ADS have shown that this is not the case. These circuits generate a bandpass transfer function with only one pole at f = 0. Notice the circuit in the dashed boxes in Figure 13c and d. This circuit is equivalent to a resistance of 1/g m3 Ω [7, p 356]. In Figure 13c this circuit may be replaced by the load resistance R L to ground. In this case g m3 may be replaced with 1/R L in Eq. (5.13). Hereby the denominator in Eq. (5.8) is obtained. Since all the circuits share the same denominator, ω 0 and Q for all the circuits are: gm1 g m2 ω 0 = (5.15) C 1 C 2 Q = C 2 gm1 g m2 (5.16) g m3 C 1 C 2 Notice that g m = g m1 g m2 and C 1 = C 2 means that ω 0 = g m /C 1,2 and Q = g m /g m3. This resembles ω 0 and Q of the gyration-c resonators described in subsection Q is hence closely linked to the center frequency and gain of these filters. The only literature found, that report implementations of recursive filters, use the type illustrated in Figure 13b [1, 15]. However, the feedback path consists of a more complicated circuit than the LC resonator used in the example above. [1] reports a Q of in combination with a gain of db at GHz in a 0.18 µm CMOS process. 5-2 Noise and Dynamic Range Noise performance is important for the filters function in the transmitter. A noise budget is made in chapter 3, that specifies a maximal inband noise figure of 10 db. The noise figure of a gyration-c resonator is [10, 9]: NF gmc = 1 + 4γQ (5.17) if g m1 = g m2, C 1 = C 2 and γ is the noise gamma effect of the transistors [9]. The noise figure for a Q-enhanced LC resonator is [9]: NF Qenh = Q Q 0 (1 + r n, g n ) (5.18) where Q 0 is the un-compensated Q, and r n and g n are the relative noise resistance and admittance respectively of the Q-enhancement circuit [9]. They indicate how much noise the PAGE 37

41 PER MADSEN circuit generates compared to a passive resonator with equivalent Q [9]. r n and g n depend on both the gamma effect in the transistors used on the Q-enhancement circuit and on how the Q-enhancement circuit is implemented [9]. So far the focus has been on noise. Another benchmark that is discussed in the literature is dynamic range. Although different approaches are used in the literature, the same major conclusions are reached. According to [6] the best dynamic range achievable in bi-quads, such as the ones used in gyration-c and recursive resonators in Figure 13c to e, is: DR gmc = v2 maxc 4kT ξ 1 Q (5.19) where v max is the maximum non-saturated average voltage over the capacitors, k is Boltzman s constant, C is the total capacitance, distributed equally among C 1 and C 2, T is temperature in Kelvin, ξ is the noise factor of the gain stages, and Q is the loaded quality factor. An expression for the dynamic range of a Q-enhanced LC filter is reported as [11]: DR Qenh = v2 maxc 4kT ξ Q 0 Q (5.20) The parameters are the same as used in Eq. (5.19), except for ξ, which in this case takes into account differences in implementation of the negative resistance. Furthermore the un-compensated Q in the LC circuit Q 0 is introduced. The investigations presented in [6, 11, 10, 9] are all very superficial. They use a simple transistor model that combines all noise effects to one noise current source at the transistor output. The noise current depends on g m in the transistor and the gamma effect, which takes into account differences in substrate and transistor type. Further more the upper limit of dynamic range is specified by some voltage, which is difficult to relate to specific linearity performance in the transistor. It is, however, beyond the scope of this work to remedy this. In spite of crude modelling, the reported investigations manage to show simple correlations between noise, dynamic range and Q. 5-3 Conclusion This section investigates different types of resonators presented in the literature. Q-enhanced resonators or resonators with gyration-c inductors may both generate the required Q, while recursive filters may have difficulties in providing the required Q at the required frequency while maintaining a usable gain. This leaves the Q-enhanced LC resonator and the gyration-c resonator as suitable choices. Q-enhanced resonators are shown to have a theoretical noise performance that is superior to the gyration-c resonator. The Q-enhances LC resonator is therefore selected for the application in the UMTS Tx filter. REFERENCES [1] Win Chaivipas, Magnus Denestig, Mohammed Ismail, and Henrik Johnson.

44 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU 6 Q-ENHANCEMENT CIRCUIT Chapter 5 concludes that Q-enhanced LC resonators are the best way to implement high Q resonators in applications, where noise and linearity are important factors. Q-enhancement is achieved by compensating losses in passive LC resonators, using an active circuit that generates negative input impedance. This section describes a circuit that generates negative differential impedances. An implementation of approach I in Chapter 4 was simulations using the design kit from the foundry. The filter was designed for 200 Ω differential source and load impedances and a 2.5 V power supply. Apart from two Q-enhanced resonators the filter consisted of three differential buffers implemented with FETs in common source configuration. Two buffers were used to isolate the resonators from the source and load impedances. The third buffer was used to isolate the resonators from each other. Capacitive coupling may be used for this [7, 1], but in this filter it would generate unacceptable losses. The simulations included noise and linearity. The requirements to noise figure in Table 4.1 were translated to average noise voltages in a 200 Ω load. Requirements to noise in the UMTS Tx band are thus 10 nv/ Hz and for the UMTS Rx and Rx image bands: 1.4 nv/ Hz. The requirements to ACLR at ±5 MHz in Table 4.1 were translated to requirements to 3 rd intermodulation suppression. The method used to estimate non-linear transfer functions in [6] translated the required ACLR to a 3 rd intermodulation suppression of 37 db. Type h in Figure 11 was the first choice of Q-enhancement circuit, but it was not sufficiently linear. Source degeneration with a small resistance improved linearity, but the fixed supply voltage limited the size of this resistance. A differential version of type b in Figure 11 appeared to offer better linearity at the cost of current consumption. The noise voltages were simulated to up to 13 nv/ Hz in the Tx band and 2.4 nv/ Hz in the Rx and Rx image bands. The target for noise are thus not full filled, but the simulations indicated that the output buffer was the largest noise source and this buffer may be omitted in a full integrated transmitter. Harmonic balance simulations indicated a harmonic suppression of 37 db as desired. It is necessary to know how the circuit reacts to factors like component size and biasing in order to make an efficient design. An expression equivalent to Eq. 5.4 was derived for the Q- enhancement circuit, but estimates didn t match simulations well. This chapter presents a more detailed expression for the differential admittance and investigates the effects of component size and biasing. Figure 14 shows a diagram of the differential circuit implemented with BJTs. The differential impedance is generated with C 1, C 2 and C 3 in combination with M 1 and M 2. L 1 and L 2 are not part of the circuit, but are included to illustrate how the bases of M 1 and M 2 are biased. M 3 and M 4 controls the current in the circuit and separates the emitters of M 1 and M 2 from ground. Although the circuit is shown with BJTs, it also works well with FETs. The small signal representation of BJTs, shown in Figure 15, is used to simplify the analysis and help identify important impedances in the circuit. This small signal representation is used to set up the equivalent small signal diagram for differential operation of the Q-enhancement circuit shown in Figure 16. The small signal diagram includes Z 4 and Z 5, which represents parallel combinations of the PAGE 41

The same basic representation is used for FETs. output impedances of the transistors. It will be shown later that these impedance are significant. The small-signal diagram is used to derive expressions for the differential admittance. Eq. (6.1) is a simplified expression, where Z 4 and Z 5 are omitted. Y INs = 1 ( (Z µm1 + Z µm2 ) Z 1 + Z 3 + Z ) (6.1) 2 (Z 2Z 1 y M1 + Z 2 Z 3 y M2 ) This expression has the level of detail reported in the literature for the single ended versions. If transistors are used, where only the trans-conductance g m is significant and the circuit is symmetrical, the differential conductance at the frequency f reduces to: gm 1 2 (2πf) 2 C 1 C 2, while the differential reactance reduces to a series connection of C 1, C 2 and C 3. Eq. 6.2 is a more detailed expression for the differential admittance that includes Z 4 and Z 5 and hence the output impedance the transistors. Y INc = (Z µm1 + Z µm2 ) 1 ( Z 1 + Z 3 + Z 2 (Z 4 + Z 5 ) + y M1 Z 1 Z 4 + y M2 Z 3 Z 5 Z 3 + Z 4 + Z 5 ) (6.2) Refer to [4, 5] for details on how the small signal transistor representation is used in Eqs. 6.1 and 6.2. In the following the expressions are used to analyse the Q-enhancement circuit in PAGE 42

The analysis includes a BJT implementation build from discrete components and a monolithic circuit implemented on a standard 0.25 µm CMOS process. 6-1 Low Frequency Experiment with Discrete BJTs This section describes an experiment conducted with discrete components. The purpose of this experiment is validate Eq. (6.1) and Eq. (6.2) and investigate how the circuit reacts to changes in component size and biasing conditions. The circuit was implemented with discrete components. It was therefore possible to measure the used components individually to get the exact data for use in the expressions. The capacitors were implemented with standard 0402 components and the transistors were implemented with BC-847-S. The circuit was tested in the four configurations listed in Table 6.1. L 1 and L 2 were 220 nh during all tests. TABLE 6.1: Configurations used during the tests.

S-parameters were also measured the used capacitors and transistors. The transistors were biased as in the circuit during these measurements. This was done to determine the parameters in the small signal representation in Figure 15 for each biasing point Frequency Response This section shows how well Eqs. (6.1) and (6.2) match measured results. Similar results are presented in [4] for selected bias voltages. The two cases listed in Table 6.2 are selected for further analysis. Figure 17 shows the differential conductance between P 1 and P 2 in Figure 16 versus frequency. The measured differential conductance (G INm ) is calculated from the 2-port S-parameters measured on the circuit and compared with the real part of Y INs calculated with Eq. (6.1) (G INs ) PAGE 43

G INm is the measured conductance, G INs is estimated using Eq. (6.1) and G INc is estimated using Eq. (6.2). It is seen that Eq. (6.1) estimates the differential conductance worse than Eq. (6.2) in all the tests. Z 4 and Z 5 are therefore significant in this circuit. It is further noticed that a distinct notch appears between 10 MHz and 40 MHz depending on biasing, capacitance and number of transistors. This notch appears because the transistor s trans-admittance has a significant reactive part. PAGE 44

48 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU Biasing This section investigates how an increase of V BIAS effects y and the differential conductance. This is done in order to see if there is an optimum value for trans-conductance in the transistors. The trans-admittance of M 1 and M 2 in Figure 14 are measured and averaged for each bias point to form y. The measured and estimated differential conductance are plotted versus the magnitude of the trans-admittance y in Figure 18. The plot is made at 40 MHz for all the tests defined in Table 6.1.

G INm is the measured conductance, G INs is estimated using Eq. (6.1) and G INc is estimated using Eq. (6.2). The trans-admittance is close to zero at V BIAS = 0 V, but as V BIAS increases so does y,- that is to a certain point, because in test 1 and 2 y stops increasing when it reaches 40 ms. At this point V BIAS is 0.9 V. It is seen that, with exception of the last measurement point, Eq. (6.1) returns to the conductance obtained previously as y starts to decrease. The same is not the case for the measurements and Eq. (6.2). This indicates that Z 4 and Z 5 becomes increasingly significant in this region. Test 3 and 4 only includes eight biasing points. The bias voltage is not higher than 0.7 V and the transistors are therefore not operated in the region where y started to decrease PAGE 45

49 PER MADSEN in test 1 and 2. It is therefore concluded that decrease in differential conductance observed in tests 1 and 2 does not represent general behavior of the Q-enhancement circuit. Instead it is a result of the transistors being operated with decreasing efficiency Choice of Capacitance This section investigates if one particular choice of capacitance is better than others. Although Eq. (6.1) overestimates the Q-enhancement capabilities, Figure 17 shows that it predicts the correct frequency of the notch. This indicates that the notch has something to do with the trans-admittance of M 1 and M 2. Eq. (6.1) is therefore used to establish a connection between trans-admittance (y) and capacitance. It is sufficient to use the average of the capacitance (C a ) together with y. A simplified expression for the differential conductance is: G INe(f) = Re 1 y (2πfC a ) 2 + j 3 2πfC a (6.3) (2πfC a ) 2 Re{y(f)} = (Re{y(f)}) 2 + (Im{y(f)} + 6πfC a ) 2 (6.4) Eq. (6.2) is used to plot the differential conductance as a function of capacitance in [4]. Figure 19 repeats this and compares the notches with the results from Eq. (6.4) in order to shown that this expression estimates the notch correctly. The example uses the biasing conditions from table 6.2 and results are shown for operation at 40 MHz. As might be expected Eq. (6.4) estimates the differential conductance much lower than Eq. (6.2), but the largest magnitudes of the differential conductance are obtained with the same capacitances. Eq. (6.4) can therefore be used to determine the best choice of capacitance (C a_opt ) through an analysis of extremes. C a_opt is found as: y(f) 2 C a_opt (f) = (6.5) 6πf Im{y(f)} Eq. (6.5) is used on the y measured on the transistors. The values of y and the resulting C a_opt are listed in Table 6.3. TABLE 6.3: y and associated optimal capacitance. y 7.8-j j j j52.4 ms C a_opt pf To test if these choices are in fact optimal, the differential conductance for different capacitances is calculated using Eq. (6.2) and Eq. (6.4). This is done with y parameters measured on the transistors in the cases listed in Table 6.3. The differential conductance obtained with the optimal capacitances from Table 6.3 is also calculated using Eq. (6.2) and Eq. (6.4). The results are marked with " " and "x" respectively in Figure 19.

If larger magnitudes of differential conductance are required the only solution is to increase y by either increasing the size of the transistors or changing the biasing. The choice of capacitance was important because y had a significant reactive part. The used BJT had a transition frequency of 250 MHz [8], but the reactive part of y may be significant already at the cut-off frequency, which may be decades lower than the transition frequency. The reactive part of y was already significant at 10 MHz for the used transistor. A survey was made on commercially available RF BJTs. The transition frequencies of the transistors were between 20 and 70 GHz [9, 10, 11, 12], but S-parameters provided by the manufacturer revealed that the reactive part of y was significant at 1 GHz for all the transistor. The behavior observed in this section may therefore be critical for RF devices as well. 6-2 Monolithic RF CMOS implementation This section describes a version of the negative resistance that has been implemented in a standard 0.25 µm 1 poly 5 metal layer CMOS process. Section 6-1 shows that the BJT implementation could be optimized through the choice of capacitance. This section investigates how the CMOS implementation reacts to changes in biasing and capacitor size, in order to establish if similar optimization can be done. The supply voltage is 2.5 V. The circuit was initially design to compensate a 3 nh inductor with PAGE 47

51 PER MADSEN a Q of 7.5 at 1950 MHz. The conductance G of an LC resonator with quality factor of Q and an inductor of L H is expressed by [3]: 1 G = (6.6) 2πf c LQ Since the inductor is likely to have much lower Q than the capacitor in a CMOS LC resonator, G is assumed only to belong to the inductor. The conductance of inductor is therefore 3.6 ms. Figure 20 shows a diagram of the implemented circuit as published in [5]. C 1, C 2 and C 3 FIGURE 20: Diagram of the Q-enhancement circuit that was implemented on the chip. The inductor was not implemented, but is included here to indicate that M 1 and M 2 were biased with V CC. together with M 1 and M 2 generate a negative conductance between P 1 and P 2. M 3 and M 4 adjusts the biasing and R 1 and R 2 together with C 4 stabilize M 3 and M 4, which tended to oscillate at low frequencies. C 4 is implemented as two banks of capacitors to increase symmetry in the circuit. The reader is referred to [5] for more details of the implementation of this circuit. The differential conductance is found for this circuit using the small signal diagram in Figure 16. However, Z 4 and Z 5 also includes R 1 and R 2 [5]. S 11 and S 22 exhibited the behavior seen in components with the potential for high Q operation. Exact measurements were therefore difficult to obtain. To obtain a best guess the measured differential conductance (G INm ) is averaged from several measurements. Since the circuit was implemented on a chip, it was not possible to measure the exact used components. Transistors, capacitors and resistors have been implemented in stand alone test fixtures on different lots and were measured there. 2-port S-parameters were measured in the transistors, which were implemented in common source configuration. The biasing conditions of the transistors were recreated as well as possible, but an exact match of conditions faced by M 1 and M 2 could not be obtained. The biasing voltages were estimated via the design tool kit provided by the foundry, which was found have accurate linear models of transistors [5] Frequency Response A simple expression for the differential conductance is needed to simplify the optimization of the circuit. However it must hold the information required to generate the observed behavior. This section investigates which level of detail is required to reproduce the behavior of the circuit. This is done in the frequency domain, based on the two cases defined in Table 6.4. PAGE 48

Power consumption [mw] a b A biasing point close to case a is used in chapter 7, where the circuit is used in an LC resonator. Case b is where the differential conductance was smallest. G INm is shown in Figure 21 together with estimates made with Eq. (6.1) (G INs ) and Eq. (6.2) (G INc ). The conductance of the capacitors is important, while the reactance of y is small compared to the trans-conductance (g m ). The capacitors are of different sizes [5]. This is expressed by replacing C 2 with nc 1. The conductance is represented by the potential Q and the same value is used for all capacitors. The simplified version of Eq. (6.1) is: Y INg(f) = 2 ( ) + 1 2πfC 1 Q(f) + j 1 1 n2πfc 1 ( 1 Q(f) + j (6.7) g ) m (f) + ( ( )) 1 2 n 2πfC 1 Q(f) + j The differential conductance G INg(f) is the real part of Y INg(f) as expressed by: (( ) ( ) ) n (2πfC 1 ) 2 2n g m (f) + 2πfC 1 Q(f) Q(f) G INg(f) = 2 1 2n πfC 1 Q(f) ( ) 2n (6.8) g m (f) + 2πfC 1 + (2πfC 1 (2n + 1)) 2 Q(f) Eq. (6.7) is also included in Figure 21. C 1 and C 2 are estimated from measurements, averaged from 1 to 3 GHz. Eq. (6.7) use the same Q for both C 1 and C 2. The potential Q of the capacitors changed significantly over frequency. In Eq. 6.8 the used Q is the averaged of C 1 and C 2, calculated for each measured frequency. Figure 21 shows that although Eq. (6.1) estimates larger magnitudes of differential conductance than Eq. (6.2), the relative error is not as large as in the experiments with BJT transistors. It is also seen that Eq. (6.7) estimates the notch at approximately the same frequency as Eq. (6.2). The important information is therefore maintained. The smallest differential conductance achieved at 1950 MHz is approx -2.8 ms. This is sufficient to enhance the Q of the intended inductor to Choice of Trans-Conductance The experiment with BJTs showed that increasing the biasing voltage did not always increase the g m in the transistors. This section investigates if the same effects are present in the CMOS implementation. To this end V Bias was increased form 0 to 1.1 V in steps of 0.1 V. I CC kept increasing during this sweep. 2-port S-parameters were measured at each biasing point. The differential conductance is calculated from these measurements and estimated from the measurements on the transistors. The results are shown in Figure 22 for 500 MHz (A) and 1950 MHz PAGE 49

Case a and b refer to Table 6.4. G INm is estimated from measurements, G INs is estimated from Eq. (6.1), G INc from Eq. (6.2) and G INg from Eq. (6.7). (B). The first point of G INm is measured with all supplies off, resulting in a g m equal to zero. The next point is measured with only the supply voltage on, but because of R 1 and R 2, the circuit is active and M 1 and M 2 presents a g m of approx 10 ms. The remaining 7 measured points represent V BIAS from 0.5 to 1.1 V in steps of 0.1 V. For some frequency f s the optimum value of g m g m_opt_fs is found through an analysis of extremes in Eq. (6.8): g m_opt_fs = ±2πf s C Q(f s ) 2 + 2a + 2aQ(f s ) 2 (1 + Q(f s ))Q(f s ) (6.9) For Eq. (6.9) to apply Eq. (6.8) must be a good estimate of the differential conductance in the proximity of the notch. This is the case at 500 MHz, where the optimal conductance is estimated to 26 ms. The maximal achievable differential conductance is estimated from both Eq. (6.7) and Eq. (6.2). The results are marked by "x" and " " respectively in Figure 22. At 1950 MHz g m_opt_fs is estimated to 103 ms, which is beyond the 46 ms achievable with the transistors. This point is therefore not included in Figure 22. It is seen that Eq. (6.8) is close to Eq. (6.2) until g m no longer increases with the biasing voltage. At 500 MHz the largest magnitude of differential conductance is obtained where g m is 26 ms. This is close to the point estimated by Eq. (6.9). No measurements were made with the biasing that generated g m_opt_fs. The differential conductance estimated with g m_opt_fs can therefore not be expected to appear exactly on the traces for G INc and G INg. At 1950 MHz the largest magnitude of differential conductance is obtained where the magnitude of the transadmittance is 45 ms. At this point g m stabilizes even though V BIAS is increased further. Here G INm and G INc starts to decrease while G INg stabilizes. This indicates that the parasitics in- PAGE 50

Eq (6.8) does not include Z 4 and Z 5 and can thus not take this effect into account. The fact that an optimal choice for g m is found in Eq (6.8) shows that increasing g m alone will not always increase the magnitude of differential conductance Choice of Capacitance Section shows that an optimum exists for g m on given frequency. This section investigates if an optimum exists for capacitance. Knowledge of the best choice of capacitance may help the designer to optimize the negative conductance of the circuit, if g m for one reason or another, can not be changed. It is assumed that all the used capacitors have the same Q. This can be achieved if the capacitors are implemented as parallel connections of the same unit capacitor. The best choice of C 1, C 1_opt, is found through analysis of extremes in Eq. (6.8): where C 1_opt = g m Q 6πf(2n + 1) ( A 4 Q Q2 1 (Q 2 + 1) A ) (6.10) A = 3 27Q Q Q4 + 10Q 2 1 Q 2 (Q ) Q (6.11) Figure 23 shows estimates and simulations of differential conductance as a function of capacitance at 1950 MHz. The test is conducted with a Q of 71 to get a value close the what has been measured on the capacitors. In order to provide measured data for this sweep, one circuit would have to be implemented for each measurement point. Instead capacitors are swept using the design kit provided by the foundry, as this was found to simulate the transistors well [5]. simulated values for differential conductance are denoted G INsim. Finally G INc and G INg are calculated with the estimated C 1_opt. These are marked by " " and "x" respectively and the one measured data point available for each bias point is marked by " ".

The only available measured data is marked by " ". The estimates of C 1_opt fits Eq. (6.2) well, but they are pf larger than indicated by the simulations. The differential conductance changes slowly near the notch, so the resulting difference in the differential conductance is not significant. It may therefore be desirable to choose capacitances smaller than the optimal choice in order to save space and reduce the capacitive impedance of the Q-enhancement circuit. 6-3 Conclusion This chapter investigates two implementations of a proposed Q-enhancement circuit. Both were found to have notches in the frequency domain, but the notches were caused by different factors. In the BJT experiment the reactive part of the transistors trans-admittance was the significant factor, while the conductance of the used capacitors was the significant factor in the CMOS implementation. In both cases the optimal choice of capacitance was estimated from simplified expressions and in both cases it was found that infinitely low differential conductance can not be obtained only by increasing the capacitance. The existence of an extreme in Eq. (6.8) shows that the same is the case for g m in the CMOS implementation. Both experiments also showed that at some point, increasing the biasing voltage and hence DC current no longer increases the trans-admittance in the transistors. If this point is reached, the only option is to increase the size of the transistors, as done in the experiment with BJTs, but the extreme point found in Eq. (6.8) shows that even this has a limit in the CMOS implementation. The scientific contributions provided through this part of the project are: Demonstration that the suggested differential circuit indeed can generate a negative differential conductance, both when implemented with discrete components and on a standard CMOS process. An analytical expression that describes the differential conductance of the circuit and includes transistor output impedances. PAGE 52

The Q-enhancement circuit was proposed because of its assumed potential for high linearity or low noise [2]. However this assumption was based of an analysis that did not include the transistors output impedances. This work has demonstrated that the transistor output impedances are significant for linear operation. These parasitics should therefore be included in analysis of noise and linearity.

58 PhD Thesis R , March 3, Texas Instruments Denmark A/S & RISC group, AaU 7 Q-ENHANCED RESONATOR This chapter presents results obtained with an experimental implementation of a Q-enhanced monolithic LC resonator, using the Q-enhancement circuit described in Chapter 6. Although the literature holds may examples of monolithic resonators, none uses the Q-enhancement circuit presented here. The experiment reveals weaknesses and forces of this used Q-enhancement circuit. The resonator was designed to have a mid range center frequency (f C ) of 1950 MHz and a tuning range of approx 100 MHz using the design kit available form the foundry. However this was not obtained in the measurements. The simulated capacitors were 10 % smaller than measurements indicated. Further more errors of 100 % in the simulation of the capacitance in transistors in weak accumulation mode meant that the simulated tuning range was 10 MHz larger than measured. Although such errors might be expected, they are too large to for an efficient design of high Q resonators. In the following measured data are therefore used for these components in the simulations. Figure 24 shows a diagram of the implemented circuit. The LC resonator consists of transistors M 1 through M 10 with de-coupling capacitors C 1 through C 10 and the inductor L 1. The Q- enhancement circuit consists of transistors M 11 through M 14, capacitors C 11 through C 14 and the resistors R 1 and R 2. Refer to [4, 5] for more details on this circuit. FIGURE 24: Diagram of the implemented Q-enhanced LC resonator. PAGE 55

59 PER MADSEN 7-1 Results The inductor was measured to 5.6 nh and had a potential Q of about 7.5 [5] at 1850 MHz. From Eq. (6.6) the conductance of the inductor is found to be approximately 2 ms at this frequency. The varactors have a high potential Q and their conductance is thus insignificant. The Q-enhancement circuit is capable of compensating for up to 2.8 ms, so in this case it may be backed off. Compensation is achieved with a bias voltage of 0.58 V and a current consumption of 6.9 ma from a 2.5 V supply. The circuit therefore consumed 17.3 mw in this configuration. Figure 25 shows simulated and measured differential conductance and reactance on a frequency in the middle of the resonators tuning range. The reactance is zero at the center frequency of LC resonators [3]. The center frequency is thus approx MHz. At this point the conductance was approx. 0.2 ms so the Q of the resonator was about 80. However, Q of this magnitude are difficult to measure in a 50 Ω system.

[MHz] Q sim. f C meas. [MHz] Q meas Discussion The circuit is more than capable of compensating for the inductor used in the experiment, but f C is not as expected. This is mainly because the implemented (MIM) capacitors were larger than the design kit estimated. The resonator is sensitive to tolerances on both capacitors and g m in the transistors. Tolerances on g m mainly influence the Q, while the capacitors influence both the Q and f C. Automated tuning schemes such as voltage controlled filter tuning and voltage controlled oscillator tuning exists [1]. Such schemes may control both frequency and Q, but the required tuning range must be available in the resonator. The simulations presented here were conducted using data measured on stand alone implementations of the capacitors C 11 and C 12. C 11 was implemented on one lot and C 12 on another. Although the statistical background is limited, the experiment indicated some repeatability in the MIM capacitors. Even though the measurements of the LC resonator were conducted on a 3 rd lot, the data measured on the capacitors still provided a good match when used in the simulations. Simulations of weak accumulation mode of the FETs used in the varactor bank were also inaccurate, but f C was more sensitive to errors on the capacitors than this error. The use of measured data in the simulations provided a good estimate of f C, but tolerances are not known. If the design was to be made for the tolerances in the design kit, the frequency tuning range of the resonator would have to be increased. This requires that a larger varactor bank is implemented, but since the varactors are capacitive in weak accumulation mode, this is not possible in the present configuration. The problem with the design is that the size of C 11 to C 13 and L 1 sets limits to how large a capacitance may be added in the varactor bank. However, there are several ways to remedy this: The center frequency f 0 of an LC resonator is [3]: f 0 = 1 2π LC (7.1) By reducing the size of the inductor, the size of the capacitance may be increased. This means that the varactor bank may generate a larger percentage of capacitance, but on the other hand, it would also require a larger shift in capacitance to change f 0. The conductance in the LC resonator is inverse proportional with the used inductance as seen in Eq. (6.6). This means that the Q-enhancement circuit would have to provide a smaller differential conductance to compensate for the same Q and this in turn means higher current consumption. Figure 23 indicates that the Q-enhancement circuit can provide a differential conductance PAGE 57

61 PER MADSEN of -2 ms with capacitors of 1 pf, when the transistors are biased for maximal g m. This reduces the capacitance significantly, but it will also increase the current consumption. If the capacitors and transistors were ideal, the imaginary part of Eq. (6.1) would only be a series connection of C 11, C 12 and C 13. In this case the overall admittance could be reduce by making one of these capacitors smaller and compensate for the lack of Q by increasing the others. The transistors are not ideal, but the capacitors are dominant so a similar effect is expected. However, this will also change the performance with respect to noise and linearity [2]. The circuit could be scaled both in capacitance and transistor size. In this manner a more efficient operating point may be found for the transistors and smaller capacitors may be applied. However, this approach may also change the performance with respect to noise and linearity. 7-3 Conclusion The Q-enhancement circuit has been used in a monolithic LC resonator. The circuit was more than capable of compensating for the losses in the used inductor, but this is not surprising as the circuit was not designed for that particular inductor. The LC resonator proved to be sensitive to tolerances particularly on the capacitors used in the Q-enhancement circuit. This means that a large tuning range is required to compensate for tolerances or poor models of the capacitors. The use of capacitors means that the circuit exhibits a significant capacitive differential impedance. This limits the size of the varactor bank and thus the frequency tuning range. An alternative is to use measured data in the simulations as demonstrated in this chapter. This approach has estimated the center frequency at 1850 MHz with an error of only 3 MHz, which is sufficient to make an efficient design, but it requires that the components have been implemented in stand alone fixtures before the design is made. It is always important not to apply more capacitance than necessary. The author believes that the analysis of optimization of the circuit presented in Chapter 6 may help the designer to make he best choice of capacitance. REFERENCES [1] D.Li and Y. Tsividis.

Then the projects significant scientific contributions are listed and finally the author assesses which tasks remain, before the best approach to implement UMTS transmitters on CMOS can be identified. 8-1 Important Results This section recollects the important results obtained during the project. At the time of writing, the direct up-conversion transmitter appears to be the best architecture for integration on CMOS. The UMTS receiver sets the most harsh requirement to the transmitter output spectrum. An RF bandpass filter must be inserted before the power amplifier to meet this requirement. The RF bandpass filter must provide 3 db gain in the uplink band and 12 db attenuation at frequencies 70 MHz below the uplink band. This must be achieved without adding significantly to output noise and ACLR. Two approaches to obtain the required attenuation are identified. Both can be implemented with resonators with a quality factor of about 46 and 6 MHz precession of the center frequency. The designer may chose between deploying two such resonators, with enough tuning range to compensate for tolerances, or one resonator with a tuning range at least 60 MHz wider than this. If noise and linearity are important factors, Q-enhancement is the best solution to implement resonators with high quality factors on CMOS. A Q-enhancement circuit is implemented on CMOS. It generates a differential conductance of -2.8 ms at 1950 MHz with a power consumption of 80 mw. An LC resonator with the Q-enhancement circuit described above is implemented on CMOS. The center frequency of the resonator can be tuned from 1780 MHz to 1870 MHz in steps down to 2 MHz. The Q-enhancement circuit improved the quality factor from 7.5 to beyond 50 with a power consumption of 17 mw. The center frequency was simulated with a precision of approximately 3 MHz. The frequency range and quality factor required in the RF filter could be obtained. It is therefore assumed that the filtering required in the direct up-conversion transmitter for UMTS can be obtained on CMOS. 8-2 Scientific Contributions The project has generated the following scientific contributions: PAGE 59

63 PER MADSEN An experimental analysis of how selected circuit imperfections affect EVM and ACLR in uplink signals for UMTS. Analytical expressions that relate EVM to amplitude and phase imbalance in the I and Q branches. The expressions take into account the phase and amplitude adjustments conducted during calculation of EVM. An analysis of requirements to functional blocks in direct up-conversion transmitters for UMTS user equipment. Demonstration that a differential circuit, based on BJTs in common collector configuration and capacitors, can generate negative differential conductance. An analytical expression for the differential admittance of the Q-enhancement circuit mentioned above, that takes the output impedances of the transistors into account. Demonstration that the Q-enhancement circuit also works on CMOS and that the analytical expression also improves estimates when applied to CMOS circuits. Demonstration that the Q-enhancement circuit does enhance the quality factor of an LC resonator. Demonstration that the center frequency of an LC resonator with a high quality factor can be simulated with great precision, using data measured on stand alone implementations of the used passive components. The project has therefore made scientific contributions to the understanding of the UMTS systems and the design of Q-enhancement circuits for RF operation on a standard CMOS process. 8-3 Future Work and Research Many questions concerning the implementation of transmitters for UMTS on a standard CMOS process have been answered during this project. However, many more questions need to be answered before the most efficient approach can be identified. This applies both to the architecture studies and design of Q-enhanced LC resonators. The polar modulator was mentioned as a potential competitor to the direct conversion transmitter. This architecture is not mature so it will take some efforts before it is documented as well as the case is for the direct up-conversion transmitter at the time of writing. In the mean time the direct conversion transmitter appears to be the best choice. However, there is also work to be done on integration of filters on CMOS before the direct up-conversion transmitter can be integrated. An LC resonator with a center frequencies in the UMTS uplink band remains to be implemented. It is possible to simulate the frequency range to within 3 MHz of measurements and from the knowledge obtained on the design of the Q-enhancement circuit, the author thinks that an LC resonator with the desired center frequency can be designed. The Q-enhancement circuit was chosen for its potential noise and linearity performance. However, an analysis of noise and linearity that includes the transistor output impedances must be conducted for both this circuit and competing circuits in order to determine which one would be the best choice for the intended application.

Kolding, Torben Larsen, Michael B. Jenner Telital R&D Denmark, RISC Group Denmark, CPK, Aalborg University Abstract Unified RF requirements are derived for an UTRA/FDD compliant mobile transceiver. Consideration of system issues, multi-mode operation, and interfacing concerns leads to detailed receiver and transmitter calculations based on existing UMTS specifications. Finally, compliant and designcompatible transceiver requirements are derived. Keywords RF Transceiver, UTRA/FDD, transceiver requirements, direct up/down conversion. 1. Introduction The UTRA/FDD mobile standard provides an improved platform for personal communications including voice, data, and multimedia services compared to current 2G systems. In order for UTRA/FDD to retain a competitive advantage, highperformance and low-cost user equipment (UE) must be made available to the general public. In this work, unified UTRA/FDD UE transceiver requirements are derived on block level, based on previous work for the receiver branch [1] and ongoing work for the transmitter branch [2]. 2. Duplex Aspects As UTRA/FDD is based on frequency division duplex (FDD), the required isolation between transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) can only be provided by means of a duplex filter. The performance of the duplex filter is very important for the transceiver requirements and since the available physical size is limited, several design compromises apply: A low insertion loss in the Tx-band is difficult to combine with a high Tx-Rx isolation in the Rx-band. A low insertion loss in the Rx-band is difficult to combine with a high Tx-Rx isolation in the Tx-band. The transmitter-induced noise level at the receiver input (Rxband) is determined by the transmitter noise level and the duplexer isolation. A level of -111 dbm/3.84 MHz is shown in later sections to give an acceptable degradation of receiver sensitivity. To reduce insertion loss at Tx, the duplex filter should only attenuate noise generated by the power amplifier (PA) itself, while noise generated before the PA is filtered inside the Tx-chain. Assuming (i) a class 3 transmitter with a maximum output power of 24 dbm and (ii) a Tx-insertion loss of 2 db, duplexer isolation of 37 db is needed. Also, it need to be considered that a Tx-leakage signal may disturb the Rx-band because of receiver nonlinearities. With 50 db of Tx-Rx isolation, the leakage level from a class 3 transmitter becomes -24 dbm which is realistic in combination with a 3 db Rx-insertion loss. The assumed duplexer performance data is summarized in Table 1. Parameter Requirement Tx-Ant attenuation (Tx-band) [db] < 2 Rx-Ant attenuation (Rx-band) [db ] < 3 Tx-Rx isolation (Rx-band) [db] > 37 Tx-Rx isolation (Tx-band) [db] > 50 Table 1: Duplex filter requirements. 3. Receiver To ensure that the receiver has adequate performance it must meet requirements for a number of tests defined in the UTRA/FDD standard [3]. For each of these tests, a BER of 10 3 must be achieved at a user bit rate of 12.2 kbps. To meet this, a (E b /N t) eff of 5.2 db is needed [4]. A margin of 0.8 db is suggested [4] to cover for baseband implementation imperfections. It is therefore decided to use 6 db as the target value for (E b /N t) eff. It is assumed that any disturbing signals, such as distortion products, may be treated as noise. This allows thermal noise and any distortion products to be combined in a single power spectral density (PSD), N t. It is further assumed that any signal that is not on the desired channel is removed by filtering in the digital baseband part. In order not to overload the ADCs, such signals are attenuated to the power level of the desired signal before sampling takes place. Several disturbance mechanisms are active so a disturbance power budget must be chosen. Further, it should be noted that all Rx calculations relate to the Rx chain following the switch/duplexer arrangement, unless otherwise specified. This implies that power levels specified in the standard are adjusted for the loss in the duplexer. As an example, during sensitivity testing, a wanted signal of -117 dbm is specified. This value is adjusted to -120 dbm during calculations to take the estimated duplexer loss of 3 db into account Noise Figure The sensitivity requirement is specified for a data channel (DPCH) signal power, S i. Based on the required (E b /N t) eff the acceptable noise and distortion power in a channel bandwidth,

67 P acc, is calculated as P acc = S i (E b /N t) eff +10 log(pg) = = 101 dbm, (1) where the processing gain, PG, is given as chip rate over bit rate. The chip and bit rates equals 3.84 Ms/s and 12.2 kbps, respectively. The actual bit rate that should be used is 15 kbps as this is the bit rate prior to the encoding. However, some degree of coding gain is expected and for that matter 12.2 kbps is used. The Tx-leakage signal with varying envelope results in distortion products located at baseband due to even-order nonlinearities in the receiver. As a result, P acc consists of Rx-noise, P Rx,N, Tx-noise, P Tx,N, and distortion products due to Txleakage and Rx-nonlinearities. In the special case where the Tx-signal is turned off, P Rx,N = P acc resulting in a Rx noise figure of 7 db. To make room for any Tx-signal noise and distortion effects, the Rx noise figure must be reduced. As a compromise, a 1 db reduction (P Rx,N = P acc - 1 db) is accepted. Allowing the remaining noise and disturbance power to be shared equally between P Tx,N and P Tx,D, they must display disturbance powers less than -111 dbm/3.84 MHz. This disturbance budget leads to the power levels illustrated in Figure 1. Figure 1: Illustration of the noise and disturbance power distribution. Figure 2: Geometrical interpretation of intercept point. disturbance is -101 dbm. A significant part of the power of the second-order products is at baseband. However, high-pass filtering can be used to reduce this without significant signal degradation [5]. Further, as the spectra of the second-order distortion products are wider than the wanted signal spectrum, lowpass filtering also gives an improvement. In all, the combined reduction of second-order products is estimated to 6 db. Using this, the second-order intercept point caused by the blocker at ±10 MHz is found from Eq. (2) as iip 2 =2 ( 59) ( ) = 23 dbm (3) Using the same calculations the intercept point caused by the blocker at ±15 MHz is found to 1 dbm. In other tests, the Tx-power is reduced to 20 dbm for a power class 3 transmitter. This only gives a minor reduction in Txnoise and is therefore neglected in the following calculations Second-Order Intercept Point The presence of strong modulated signals with varying envelope is critical in baseband circuits since some even-order distortion products end up at baseband. To establish requirements to receiver linearity, the illustration on Figure 2 is useful. Figure 2 shows how to find the input-referred nonlinear response for an Nth order system with a given intercept point. Based on the relations given in Figure 2, the required Nth order intercept point is given as iip N = N N 1 ipint 1 ipdis [dbm], (2) N 1 where N is the order of the nonlinearity, ip INT the inputreferred power of the interferer, and ip DIS the acceptable distortion level referred to the input. To use Eq. (2), the specific test scenario must be considered. During the in-band modulated blocker test, the wanted signal is at -114 dbm, which is 3 db above the sensitivity limit. This results in a P acc of -98 dbm. Referred to the output of the duplexer, the blocking levels are at -59dBm,atanoffsetof±10 MHz, or at -47 dbm, at an offset of ±15 MHz. The test scenario is shown in Figure 3. A disturbance budget allowing for 50% (-3 db) receiver noise and Txdisturbance and for 50% (-3 db) noise from the second-order product is chosen. Based on Eq. (1) and the disturbance budget, both the maximum allowed noise power and second-order Figure 3: In-band modulated blocker test. (a) RF spectrum with wanted signal an offset modulated blocker. (b) Baseband spectrum with desired and disturbing signals. During the sensivity test, the Tx-leakage signal acts as a modulated blocker. Second-order distortion is therefore a severe problem. The required second-order intercept point is found to iip 2 =2 (26 50) ( ) = 57 dbm, (4) where 50 db of Tx-Rx isolation is included. While this appears to be a very hard target value, it is by no means unrealistic. One approach could be to make use of a RF filter after the first LNA stage.

68 3.3. Third-Order Intercept Points The in-band third-order intercept point is determined from the intermodulation test. The wanted signal is 3 db above the sensitivity limit, corresponding to -117 dbm while the interfering signal scenario consists of a CW-signal at an offset of ±10 MHz and a modulated signal at an offset of ±20 MHz. Both interfering signals are at a power level of -49 dbm as Figure 4 shows. at offsets of ±10 MHz. The harshest requirement to selectivity is made by the third-order IM test in which an interferer at -49 dbm is feed to the receiver. The requirement here is 49 db attenuation. For the remaining Rx-band the blocking test makes a requirement of 51 db attenuation. 85 MHz below the Rxband the blocking test makes a requirement of 56 db attenuation. Finally the sensitivity test makes a requirement of 77 db attenuation in the Tx-band. 4. Transmitter Transmitter requirements for the direct up-conversion architecture, illustrated in Figure 5, are derived from the transmitter tests prescribed in the UTRA/FDD standard [3]. d a DAC QUC to duplex filter LO d a 90 o VGA FI PA Figure 4: Intermodulation test. A noise budget is set up as follows: Noise power: 50% (-3 db), third-order IM-product: 50% (-3 db). Combined, the disturbances must not exceed -98 dbm. Based on this disturbance budget, it is possible to calculate the required third-order intercept point from Eq. (2) iip 3 = 3 2 ( 49) 1 ( 101) = 23 dbm (5) 2 Because of Tx-leakage, the blocking tests described in [1] also sets demands to iip 3. The out-of-band blocking test specifies that a CW-blocker is present with a level of -44/-30/-15 dbm at minimum distances from the Rx-band of 15/60/85 MHz, respectively, while the Tx output power is 20 dbm. Blockers at offsets of 85 MHz may generate intermodulation products. In this test the third-order IM-products is allowed generate 50 % of the interfering power. If the frequency of the CW-blocker is above that of Tx-leakage signal and the duplex filter offers 27 db attenuation at offsets of 85 MHz from the Rx-band, the required iip 3 is found by [1] iip 3 = 1 2 ( ( 42)) 1 ( 101) = 5.5 dbm (6) 2 The requirement to iip 3 is more harsh if the frequency of the CW-blocker is below that of the Tx-leakage signal. It is assumed that Eq. (6) still applies in this case. To obtain an iip 3 of -5 dbm, 40 db attenuation of the CW-blocker is required in the duplex filter In-band Selectivity The selectivity demands are made from the philosophy that disturbing signals should be attenuated to the level of the desired signal in order not to overload the ADCs. A special test is set up for the selectivity for the first adjacent channel located at an offset of ±5 MHz. Here, all signals are well above the noise level and no other disturbance mechanisms are active. The resulting selectivity requirement at ±5 MHz offset is 33 db [1]. Selectivity here includes any kind of filtering and frequency sensitivity of the demodulator. Several tests use interfering signals DAC Figure 5: Block diagram of transmitter Input/Output Signals The input signals are delivered by two DACs, each assumed to deliver an RMS power of -13 dbm. Each DAC is assumed to deliver a signal with the PSD illustrated in Figure 6. Figure 6: Power spectral density of the DAC. The assumed PSD is such that no additional filtering of the DAC output is required. In the overall RMS error vector magnitude (EVM) budget for the transmitter, the DACs are allowed to contribute with 8 % due to filtering and I/Q imbalance. The output signal specification is based on the noise requirements presented in [3] and on the requirement to noise in the UTRA/FDD Rx-band, taking the duplex filter attenuation into account. The input and output signals for the Tx front-end are specified in Table 2. Three bands have been identified as critical for the spurious emission tests. These bands are band 1 = [1805 MHz 1880 MHz], band 2 = [ MHz MHz], and band 3 = [2110 MHz 2170 MHz] Spurious Requirements Apart from the input signal spurious power, sources of undesired power are noise generated in the transmitter circuits and phase noise in the LO signal. The output noise is thus a sum of power contributions of each of these factors. In bands 1 to 3, the LO phase noise spectrum is assumed to be flat, meaning that

69 Parameter DAC Output Power [dbm] EVM [%] ACLR [db] f c± 5MHz f c± 10 MHz Spurious Band 1 [dbm/100 khz] Band 2 [dbm/300 khz] Band 3 [dbm/3.84 MHz] Table 2: Requirements to DAC and output signals. the output signal SNR owing to LO phase noise corresponds directly to the phase noise specified at the LO output. The output phase noise power in the bandwidth B, P OPH B, is found for a output signal of P OS by Eq. (7). P OPH B = L LO +10 log(b)+p OS [dbm/b] (7) Apart from the desired signal, the transmitter also amplifies DAC noise and phase noise introduced by the LO. It is assumed that the gain of the transmitter blocks is constant at frequencies up to ± 30 MHz from the Tx-band. Furthermore, PAs are notorious for making image mixing. Image mixing happens when the second harmonic of desired signal mixes noise that is offset +f from the carrier to an offset of f. Conversion gains in the range of 0 db have been encountered in state-of-the-art PAs. This means that the power at both the positive and the negative offsets will appear in the same band. For the DACs this means that the sidebands indicated in Figure 6 are amplified with two times the in-band transmitter gain. In the most critical scenarios, noise at 12.5 MHz appears in band 2, while noise at 30 MHz appears in band 1. Assuming the noise performance of the DACs is given, the margin to the output noise power specified in Table 2 is used to specify white noise and LO phase noise. Circuit noise power requirements for bands 1 to 3 are listed in Table 3. Figure 7: Tx LO phase noise requirement. Figure 7 describes the phase noise of the LO used in the transmitter. For bands 1 and 2 phase noise power is specified at offsets of ± 30 MHz and ± 12.5 MHz. For band 3, the shortest distance from the carrier is 130 MHz. The LO phase noise is thus specified at an offset of ± 30 MHz Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR) The ACLR test specified in [3] sets requirements to intermodulation products, phase noise, and noise in the DACs. With T OIMD being the equivalent temperature of the intermodulation noise at the output, the equivalent noise temperature for adjacent channels is found from T OT = T OIMD + T OPH + T ODAC [k] (8) From state-of-the-art devices it is found that especially thirdorder intermodulation is critical. Assuming that ACLR is due to third-order intermodulation only, an oip 3 of 37.6 dbm is needed to obtain the ACLR required at ± 5 MHz [6]. Assume instead that DACs and LO are used that features the performance shown in Figure 6 and 7 respectively at frequencies and frequency offsets of ± 2.5 MHz. Then using Eq. (8) and [6] an oip 3 of 37.7 dbm is found to provide the required ACLR. DACs and LOs with the indicated performance can thus be used at the cost of only 0.1 db increase of the required oip 3.ACLR has been observed to depend on the output single tone 1 db compression point (CP O) instead of the corresponding oip 3,when PAs are operated near their CP O. The transmitter simulated in [6] features a CP O that is 10.6 db below the corresponding oip 3 [7]. The required CP O is therefore 27.1 dbm Error Vector Magnitude EVM of the output signal of the transmitter is a result of many factors that cause signal degradation. The total EVM (EVM T) caused by N uncorrelated factors is found by EVM T = N EVM 2 n [ %] (9) n=1 Which factors that contribute to EVM depend on the transmitter architecture. For a direct up-conversion transmitter, significant contributing factors are: DACs, in-band ripple, I and Q imbalance, phase noise, third-order intermodulation and LO leakage. The contributions from the DAC and the third-order intermodulation are already given. When amplifiers that meets the ALCR requirement are used, EVM in the range of 3 % have been observed. In the following the remaining contributors are specified so that a total of 17.2 % EVM is obtained at the output signal. In-band ripple is specified for the desired channel only. It includes in-band magnitude ripple compared to the RMS magnitude, and RMS phase ripple compared to the linearized in-band phase that causes minimum RMS error. Amplitude ripple of 0.4 db results in an EVM of 4.7 % [8], while phase ripple of 4 deg. results in an EVM 7 % [8]. EVM is measured in time slots with a duration of 667 µs [3]. LO phase noise at offsets of less than one tenth of the frequency of the time slots is not detected by the receiver as phase error. The lower limit for the specification of LO phase noise is therefore 150 Hz. Figure 7 defines the phase noise of the LO used for the transmitter. The average in-band phase noise of this LO is 4 deg. The EVM caused be an RMS phase noise of 4 deg. is approximately 7 % [2]. An I/Q amplitude imbalance of 1.4 db generates an EVM of 8.0 % [2], while a phase offset between the I and the Q signal of 5 deg. generates and EVM of 4.4 % [2]. A general expression that depends on LO leakage is LO to signal ratio (LSR). LSR is defined as the ratio between the average power of the LO signal, measured at the output of the quadrature up converter (QUC), and the average power of the desired signal, measured at the same place. LSR can be transferred directly to the output of the transmitter, which makes it suitable for specification of LSR induced EVM, EVM LO, found by EVM LO = LSR 100 [ %] (10) Eq. (10) defines LSR as a ratio. For specification purposes the required LSR is presented in db. An LSR of -27 db is found to generate an EVM of 4.5 %. When a gain budget exists for the transmitter, a specification of LO-leakage can be made. The

70 UTRA/FDD standard does not allow adjustments of DC offsets during EVM measurements. If this is allowed, LSR will have no effect on EVM. 5.

A particular nice feature is the fact that the large bandwidth makes W-CDMA systems less sensitive towards 1/f noise and DC offset problems inherent to homodyne receivers. An example of an UTRA/FDD directconversion receiver is shown in Figure 8. An interstage bandpass filter (BPF) is used to provide attenuation of the Tx-leakage signal. To meet the requirements, the BPF must attenuate the Tx-band and the band stretching from 1730 MHz to 1830 MHz at least 30 db. Considering linearity, iip 2 and iip 3 is assumed to be of constant value for carrier offsets up to ±380 MHz. iip 2 is only critical for the mixer (MIX) and subsequent base band blocks (BFA). In spite of the extra filtering, the harshest demand to iip 2 is made by the Txleakage signal. It is therefore not sufficient to specify iip 2 for MIX and BFA from the requirements to iip 2 in the Rx-band. MIX and BFA are specified so they generate an equal amount of noise power due to iip 2. Tx-leakage also sets the harshest demand to iip 3. However, in this case BPF lowers demands to the subsequent blocks, making only Low noise amplifier number 1 (LNA1) critical to the Tx-leakage signal. The block requirements are listed in Table 4. Block LNA1 BPF LNA2 MIX BFA Gain [db] NF [db] iip 2 [dbm] iip 3 [dbm] Table 4: Receiver block requirements. Some tolerances must be specified for all block gains to accommodate different variations. These tolerances require an additional margin to be put on the performance parameters listed in Table 4. Based on these block requirements, it is clear that meeting the test specifications listed in the UTRA/FDD standard is by no means unrealistic. Being able to operate LNA1 at a noise figure of 4 db makes the design of this block less critical. In terms of linearity, the continuous presence of the Tx-signal sets the most stringent requirements to the receiver. This problem becomes less severe when an interstage bandpass filter is used Transmitter Block Requirements The effect of LO phase noise on spurious and EVM depends on how gain and noise figure budgets are set up for the transmitter presented in Figure 5. The gain budget represents a compromise between noise figure and CP O. Noise contributions in bands 1 to 3 are calculated using cascaded noise figures. When calculating the resulting output noise, image mixing in the PA, described in Subsection 4.2, has to be taken into account. A one to one conversion of the noise at the image band has been observed on a state-of-the-art PA running at the desired power level. It is therefore assumed that image mixing in the PA can be taken into account by doubling the effective noise-band-width. Table 5 lists the in-band gain, noise figure and CP O performance required from each individual block. Block QUC VGA FI PA Gain [db] NF [db] CP O [dbm] Table 5: Transmitter block requirements. Figure 8: Direct-conversion receiver. Figure 9 presents budgets for signal power, cascaded CP O and noise in the critical bands. The large signal gain of the PA at band 1 and band 2 are expected to be the same as the in-band

71 gain i.e. 25 db. At band 3, a gain of 23 db and a NF of 7 db is assumed. Figure 9: Budgets for signal power [dbm], cascaded noise power at band 1 and 2 P TH B1&B2 and band 3 P TH B3 [dbm/hz], and CP O [dbm]. As was the case for the receiver, the Tx blocks has to be designed with some margin on NF and CP O to take into account gain variations. It is found that 21 db attenuation is needed in band 3. When the transmitter is operated at its highest channel, the UTRA/FDD Rx-band is offset 130 MHz from the carrier. However, the image is only offset 70 MHz from the lower edge of the Tx-band. Therefore the filter FI must provide 21 db of attenuation ± 70 MHz from the Tx-band. The need for FI arose from the philosophy that the duplex filter should only attenuate as much power as was generated in the PA. If the duplex filter was to attenuate all the noise power generated by the transmitter in the Rx-band, the duplex filter would be required to attenuate the Rx-band by 49 db. Assuming that the LO drives each mixer in the QUC with -6 dbm, a requirement for LO-leakage in QUC can now be made from the gain budget illustrated in Figure 9. Here the output signal power of QUC is -7 dbm and in Table 3 LSR is specified to -27 db. The requirement to LO-leakage is thus -28 db. A decrease in signal output power of the QUC or an increase in LO drive power, results in more harsh requirements to LO-leakage. Generally, the requirements relating to EVM does not seem critical for state-of-the-art devices. However, the requirement to output noise in band 1 sets harsh demands to the QUC. FI can not do any significant attenuation here, since the image may be in the Tx-band. The only way to allow for a significant increase in the QUC noise figure, is by attenuating band 1 in the duplex filter. If for example 8 db attenuation was available here, the noise figure of the QUC could be as high as 20 db. Obtaining such noise figures should not be a problem. this document are based directly on specifications. In practice, some margin need be included to take into account fabrication tolerances and other uncertainties. Also, it is worth noting that UTRA/FDD to a wide extent is an interference limited system where any additional performance surplus on the UE receiver side will lead to increased system capacity. Hence, network providers will prefer good UEs to increase their profit and thus UE manufacturers may wish to exceed specifications significantly in order to gain market shares. 7. References [1] O.

Requirements found in recent specifications have been mapped into block requirements suitable for design. Based on the derived Rx requirements only, plausible block requirements result from using the directconversion architecture. It is important to notice that having the Tx-signal running at all times results in the harshest requirement to the Rx linearity. Tx specifications have been translated to overall requirements for a direct up-conversion transmitter. These have been translated to block requirements. It was found that because Rx and Tx is running at the same time, a bandpass filter is required in front of the PA if the specified duplex filter is used. It should be noted that requirements presented in

74 Simulating Overall Performance Requirements for Transmitters in IMT2000 FDD User Equipment. Per Madsen Telital R&D Denmark A/S, KEYWORDS EVM, ACLR, I/Q imbalance, Phase noise, third order inter-modulation, power amplifiers ABSTRACT This work analyses the effects that various overall non-ideal circuit parameters have on EVM and ACLR. The analysis includes ( i) analytical expressions of EVM, (ii) simulations, and (iii) performance measured on an actual UTRA FDD transmitter. Results obtained through either analytical expressions or simulations are compared with measured data. INTRODUCTION Transmitters for IMT2000 FDD are specified by terms like RMS Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) and Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR). Both factors are relatively easy to measure, but they are not very suitable as design parameters for a transmitter (Tx) front-end. In order to set up a set of design parameters for a IM2000 FDD Tx front-end the effects that each design parameter has on EVM or ACLR must be known. This work investigates the effects of: (i) I/Q amplitude imbalance, (ii) performance of Digital to Analog Converters (DACs), (iii) I/Q phase imbalance, (iv) phase noise and (v) non-linear behaviour. ANALYTICAL INVESTIGATIONS Modulated by a carrier at frequency f C, the ideal output signal S(t), is expressed by S ( t) I( t) cos(2πf t) + Q( t) sin(2πf t) = (1) Distortion may appear either at I(t) and Q(t) or at the carriers. Before EVM is measured, S(t) is converted to baseband. Assuming that down conversion is followed by a sharp low-pass filter, I(t) is recreated if S(t) is multiplied by a cosine at f C, while Q(t) is recreated if S(t) is multiplied by a sine, also at f C. If S(t) is distorted, the down converted signals may contain parts of that distortion. The down converted signal can be represented as a complex BasebBand BB signal. C C S BB 1 2 ( t) = ( I ( t) + j Q ( t) ) D D (2) Defining time averaging as < > EVM is found by EVM = 2 ( I( t) I ( t) ) + ( Q( t) Q ( t) ) D 2 I ( t) + Q 2 ( t) D 2 100% (3) Analytical expressions for EVM generated by I-Q amplitude and phase imbalance and phase-noise are listed in Table 1. The expression for DAC performance is derived for a signal that features a peak to average power level of 3 db. In Table 1, φ(t) represents phase noise as function of time. If φ(t) exhibits small values and fluctuations, the cosine function is approximately linear. If the difference between average and RMS values further more is small, then <cos(φ(t))> can be approximated by cos(φ), where φ is the RMS value φ(t). The effect of these factors have been measured according to 3GPP(1) and calculated. The results are shown in Figure 2, Figure 3, Figure 4 and Figure 5. In these figures, dashed lines indicate calculated data, while dots indicate measured data. SIMULATION This section concerns time domain simulations of non-linear effects in the transmitter. When concerning non-linear behaviour, the most critical component in the transmitter is the Power Amplifier (PA), because this component handles signals of the highest power in the transmitter. To increase talk time, the PA must be as power efficient as possible. Non-linear behaviour is especially critical for ACLR 3GPP(2), but it may also cause degradation of EVM. In the simulations presented here, ACLR is measured from powers that are averaged over one time slot. ACLR is therefore expressed from the average in-band power and the average power emitted on the adjacent channels. Through measurements on state-of-the-art power amplifiers it has been found that especially ACLR on the two channels closest to the desired channel is critical. The major contributor to noise power in this band is 3 rd order intermodulation distortion. The distorted signal S D (t) can be described by Eq: (4), which generates an in-band portion and 3 rd order inter-modulation distortion at the channels closest to the desired channel. S D 3 5 ( t) = S( t) + α S( t) + α S( t + K α (4) )

75 In Eq (4) the average power of the harmonic distortion components increases with the third power of the average Power of the INput signal (P IN ). α 3 is proportional to the 3 rd order Intercept Point (IP 3 ) and determines the 1 db Compression Point of Eq. (4). Therefore the relation between IP 3 and the average power that appears at the channels closest to the desired channel is inherited Eq. (4). Measurements have revealed that this relation does not hold for state-of-the-art power amplifiers. Figure 1 shows a sketch of how the average IN-Band output Power (P INB ) and the average Power at the nearest Adjacent Channel (P AC ) have been observed to depend on P IN. In this sketch the vertical distance between P INB and P AC expresses ACLR It is noticed that P AC is not always increased by the third power of P IN as inherited in Eq. (4). Instead P AC has been observed to depend on P IN by powers less than 3 for both low and high levels of P IN. For low P IN this phenomena might appear because bias conditions in the PA may be regulated in order to optimise power efficiency or because of feedback regulation. For higher levels of P IN similar effects may take place, together with supply voltage power compression. Because of this behaviour, it is difficult to state any relation between one or more parameters and ACLR performance. In order to simulate such PAs Eq (4) has to be expanded. The expansion consists in the use of coefficients that depend on P IN as shown in Eq (5). S D 3 ( t) = ( P ) S( t) + α ( P ) S( t + K α (5) 1 IN 3 IN ) Through the theory behind Eq. (4) and knowledge about how P AC relates to the average power generated in-band when S(t) is raised to the third power, a new set of α 1 and α 3 is generated for each average input power, so that Eq. (5) generates a set of specified P INB and P AC. This approach has been tested on a set of data for P IN, P INB and P AC that are measured on a state-of-the-art PA. The results are shown in Figure 6. The measured data are shown as dots while the results of the simulation are shown as dashed lines. It appears that the specified levels are obtained for P INB and P AC when α 1 and α 3 are generated from average input power. This indicates that ACLR can be predicted from the average input power level, if the average 3 rd order power of the signal is known. This indicates that a graph based on average powers like the one illustrated in Figure 1, resemble the actual performance of the PA with respect to ACLR. Further more, if the relation between P AC and the third harmonic inter-modulation products are known, ACLR can be predicted through single or two tone tests. Because Eq. (5) is a time domain function that operates on the input signal, it is suitable for simulation of EVM performance as well as ACLR performance. During the simulations of adjacent power, EVM was also simulated. The results are shown in Figure 7 together with data measured on the same PA. Again the measured results are indicated by dots, while dashed lines indicate simulated results. Eq (5) is thus capable of predicting the EVM performance from P IN, P INB and P AC. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS Measurements were conducted using a BB simulator that is capable of delivering analog I /Q signals to an UTRA FDD transmitter. EVM and ACLR are measured on a Tx-tester. The measured results are shown in Figure 2 to Figure 7. First EVM owing I/Q amplitude imbalance is measured. To reduce the complexity of the test set-up, the BB signals are fed directly to the Tx tester. In spite of low complexity, factors like imperfections in the Tx-tester, phase noise, phase offsets and quantization noise in the BB simulator distorts the signal. This sets a lower limit to the EVM that can be measured. The measured relations are shown in Figure 2. The total EVM, EVM TOT obtained from N un-corelated sources of distortion is found by 2 EVM TOT = EVM n N n= 1 (6) Because EVM is added as root sum square, the weight of EVM caused by the imperfections becomes smaller as the I/Q amplitude offset becomes larger. It appears from Figure 2 that when the I/Q amplitude imbalance is 0 db an EVM of approx. 1% is measured. This amount of EVM is attributed to the factors mentioned above. Assuming that phase noise and I/Q phase offset contributes equally to the major amount of EVM, each parameter contributes with 0.7% according to (6). To obtain these figures the I/Q phase imbalance should be about 0.8 deg. and the RMS phase noise 0.4 deg. Such errors are not unlikely for the BB simulator. It is noticed that as the I/Q amplitude offset is increased, the measured EVM converge towards the theoretical EVM found by Eq (7). The effect of quatization is also measured using this measurement set-up. The measured results are shown in Figure 3. It is noticed that (8) is not capable of making a perfect fit for combinations of low resolution and low over-sampling ratios. This indicates that these factors co-relate with one another in manners not described by Eq. (8). Eq. (8) is therefore only considered as an approximation. For state-of-the-art DACs the over-sampling ratio is in the rage of 8 and the effective resolution is also 8. In this range of over-sampling and resolution Eq. (8) is a good approximation. Next the effect of I/Q phase offset is tested. This measurement requires a more complex set-up, which includes two passive mixers, an adjustable phase shift and power-combiners. This extra complexity adds to the number of sources of distortion. New sources are I/Q amplitude imbalance and phase noise of the LO that is used for up-conversion in the mixers. Figure 4 shows measured results along with theoretical results obtained by Eq. (9). Again it is seen that as the effect under investigation becomes the significant contributor, The measured EVM converges toward the theoretical values. For

76 0 deg. offset an EVM of 1.7% is measured. The phase error of the signal generator used in this test was measured to 0.5 deg. Together with 1% EVM generated by the BB simulator, this accounts for 1.3% EVM. The remaining amount of EVM is attributed to distortion in the mixers and imperfect adjustment of the phase offset. The same setup is used for measuring the effects of phase noise. However instead of adjusting the I/Q phase offset, phase noise is added to the LO. Measured results are shown in Figure 5 together with theoretical results obtained by Eq. (10). Again the measured results converge towards the theoretical values, as EVM, due to phase noise, becomes significant. Near zero degree phase noise, the measured EVM is in the range of what was measured for zero degree I/Q phase-offset. This indicates that the same errors are present here. Finally ACLR and EVM has been measured on a state-of-the-art PA. The measured data are shown in, Figure 6 and Figure 7. It is noticed that high values of EVM are measured where the simulated results indicate low values. The amount of EVM measured indicates that the same errors are present during this measurement, as was the case during measurement of RMS phase error and I/Q phase offset. It was found that an ACLR of 33 db is obtained when the PA delivers 27.3 dbm in-band power. When 33 db of ACLR is obtained, the PA s contribution to EVM is 3%. No relations were found between PA design parameters and ACLR during the simulations. However from measurements on various amplifiers, it appears that the ACLR requirement is met at output powers that are approx. 1 db below the amplifiers 1 db compression point. CONCLUSION The work presented here indicates cohesion between various design parameters and test parameters specified for transmitters for the IMT2000 FDD system. The influence that I/Q imbalance has on EVM has been derived and verified through measurements. Also the influence of phase noise on a local oscillator has been investigated and verified. It was found that co-relation exists between noise generated due to quantization and over-sampling, and that this correlation becomes significant when both the resolution and over-sampling ratio of a DAC are low. An approach was devised that generates a predefined in-band signal power and power at the adjacent channels, by using coefficients of a 3 rd order expression that depends on the average input power. The fact that this approach is valid indicates that ACLR can be found from averaged powers only, given that the average spectral density function of the third power of the input signal is known. The knowledge obtained in this paper is important when making budgets for EVM for UTRA FDD transmitters. Assume that a transmitter is build that uses 8 bit DACs running with an over-sampling-ratio of 8. Assume further that the modulator in the transmitter has an I /Q amplitude imbalance of 0.5dB and phase imbalance of 0.5 deg. and that a LO with a RMS phase error of 3.5 deg. is used. Finally assume that the PA described in this paper is used to deliver an average output power of 26 dbm. It can now be concluded that the combined EVM from these parts is 6.3% and that ACLR due to distortion in the PA is 35 db.
