29 Phase Modulation Analysis (1) Transmitter Architecture (2) A signal m t to be transmitted is assumed to be in the interval [-1;+1]. The phase modulated signal (pm t ) is given by: pm t = A c cos(2π Fc t + m t k p ) where A c is the carrier amplitude, Fc is the carrier frequency, t is time and k p is the modulation index, the largest phase deviation possible. By using trigonometrical identities, the phase modulated signal can be written as: pm t = A c (cos(2π Fc t) cos m t k p sin(2π Fc t) sin m t k p ) WCAS2016, Belo Horizonte, Brazil, Analysis and Design of 180 nm CMOS Transmitter for a New SBCD Transponder SoC 29
30 Transmitter Architecture (3) Phase Modulation Analysis (2) The digital blocks of the SoC Transponder produce the signals I t = cos m t k p and Q t = sin m t k p. Therefore, these signals shall be multiplied by the carrier (with the appropriate phase deviations stated by the previous equation) in order to obtain the final modulated signal. An I-Q direct conversion architecture is used in the transmitter, with a sigma-delta digital to analog converter, providing these signals to a modulator block, which performs the required multiplication. WCAS2016, Belo Horizonte, Brazil, Analysis and Design of 180 nm CMOS Transmitter for a New SBCD Transponder SoC 30
31 Transmitter Architecture (4) Bandwidth Requirements and Mask Specification (1) The functions cos m t k p and sin m t k p are non-linear The required signal bandwidth for I and Q signals is larger than the baseband input signal bandwidth; Current analog transponders IF = 90kHz, with 60kHz bandwidth; Maximum Frequency = 125kHz; New digital transponder IF = 90kHz, with 120kHz bandwidth; Maximum Frequency = 155kHz; RF Mask for current analog transponders 1.25MHz centered at F c. 1.25MHz = 2 625kHz (5 th harmonic of a 125kHz signal) RF Mask for new digital transponder 1.55MHz centered at F c. 1.25MHz = 2 775kHz (5 th harmonic of a 155kHz signal) WCAS2016, Belo Horizonte, Brazil, Analysis and Design of 180 nm CMOS Transmitter for a New SBCD Transponder SoC 31
32 Transmitter Design (2) SBCD Transmitter Specifications (2) The main specifications for the design considerations are: Output Power: 20.5 dbm 22.5 dbm Spurious Rejection: 40 dbm Intermodulation Rejection: 30dBm ENOB at Filter Output: 9 bits WCAS2016, Belo Horizonte, Brazil, Analysis and Design of 180 nm CMOS Transmitter for a New SBCD Transponder SoC 32
33 Results (4) Linearity (2) The linearity specification of the ideally demodulated signal was also simulated. The difference between the highest inter- modulation product that arises from the non-linearity of the transmitter and the input tones is 40.6 db, 10.6 db above the specification.
