Architecture de réception RF très faible coût et très faible puissance. Application aux réseaux de capteurs et au standard Zigbee

Camus, Manuel 29 January 2008 (has links) (PDF)
Le travail présenté ici s'inscrit dans la perspective du développement de modules électroniques à très faible coût et à très faible consommation pour les réseaux de capteurs sans fils (WSN). Il traite de la conception et du test d'une chaîne de réception RF compatible avec la norme IEEE 802.15.4 pour la bande ISM 2.4GHz. L'interface RF objet de notre étude inclue toutes les fonctions depuis l'antenne jusqu'au 1er étage du filtre analogique en bande de base, à partir duquel le gain devient suffisant pour masquer le bruit introduit par le reste de la chaîne de réception. Ce mémoire articulé autour de quatre chapitres, décrit toutes les étapes depuis la définition des spécifications de la chaîne de réception jusqu'à la présentation de ses performances, en passant par l'étude de son architecture et la conception de ses différents étages. Suite à l'étude de l'impact des interféreurs IEEE 802.15.4 et IEEE 802.11b présents dans la bande ISM 2.4GHz, une architecture utilisant une fréquence intermédiaire de 6MHz a été retenue. En outre, pour pouvoir répondre aux spécifications fixées, cette architecture est composée de plusieurs étages innovants ou originaux tels qu'un balun intégré trois accès, un amplificateur faible bruit sans inductance, un mélangeur passif piloté par un signal local (OL) à très faible rapport cyclique ainsi qu'un filtre bande de base optimisé en bruit et en linéarité. Intégré dans une technologie CMOS 90nm, ce récepteur occupe une surface de 0.07mm², ou 0.23mm² en incluant le balun intégré, qui représente une réduction de 70% par rapport à l'état de l'art des puces compatibles avec le standard IEEE 802.15.4. En prenant en compte la consommation dynamique de toute la chaîne de mise en forme du signal OL, la tête de réception précédemment décrite consomme seulement 4mA sous une tension d'alimentation de 1.35V. Enfin, en incluant le balun intégré, le gain est de 35dBv/dBm, le facteur de bruit de 7.5dB, l'IIP3 de -10dBm et la réjection d'image supérie ure à 32dB. Ces performances placent ce récepteur parmi les récepteurs RF les plus performants pour cette application. Les nombreux principes mis en Suvre sont par ailleurs transposables à d'autres bandes de fréquences et à d'autres standards de communication.

Contribution au développement d'antennes intégrables aux vêtements : application aux gilets militaires / Contribution to the development of integrated antennas to clothes : application to military jackets

Andriamiharivolamena, Fanamperana Tsitoha 13 March 2015 (has links)
Actuellement, les fantassins de l'armée française sont équipés d'un système de radiocommunication quand ils sont en intervention sur le terrain. L'antenne utilisée pour émettre et recevoir les signaux radiofréquences (RF) est du type monopole appelée antenne fouet placée parallèlement au corps du fantassin au niveau de la clavicule gauche. Cependant, l'antenne fouet perturbe le champ de vision des fantassins surtout lorsqu'ils tournent leur tête vers la gauche. De plus, la position de l'antenne fouet gêne les fantassins gauchers lorsqu'ils sont en position de tir. Enfin, l'antenne fouet rajoute un poids supplémentaire. Il est évident alors que l'intégration de l'antenne dans les gilets militaires permet de mieux répondre aux besoins des fantassins notamment en termes d'ergonomie. Cependant une telle intégration doit aussi répondre aux besoins d'efficacité de rayonnement, de couverture spatiale et de protection du corps vis-à-vis du rayonnement de l'antenne. De plus les contraintes liées à la technologie de réalisation doivent être prises en compte. La thèse est focalisée sur la conception et la caractérisation d'antennes intégrées aux gilets militaires. Le travail de recherche s'est fait dans le cadre du projet collaboratif GIANTE, soutenu par le dispositif DGA-RAPID, associant les partenaires complémentaires : SAFRAN Sagem, le laboratoire LCIS et ARDEJE. Le travail inclue tous les développements relevant de la conception électromagnétique avec la prise en compte du corps humain et le suivi de la réalisation par impression numérique assurée par ARDEJE qui possède la technologique jet d'encre. Il concerne également la caractérisation RF (adaptation, bande passante, diagramme de rayonnement) des antennes avec un banc expérimental adapté et l'évaluation des performances globales des antennes en environnements fonctionnels (milieu dégagé, milieu urbain, forêt). / Nowadays, the infantrymen of French army are equipped with a radio communication system when they are in field action. The antenna used to transmit and receive Radiofrequency (RF) signals is a monopole antenna called as whip antenna. It is placed parallel to the infantryman's body at the left clavicle. However, the whip antenna disrupts the field of view of infantrymen particularly when they turn their head to the left. Moreover, the position of the whip antenna bothers the left-handed infantrymen when they are in fire position. Finally, the whip antenna adds an additional weight to the infantrymen. Thus, it is obvious that the integration of the antenna into the military jackets allows to better meet the needs of infantrymen particularly in terms of ergonomy. However such an integration must also meet the needs in terms of radiation efficiency, spatial coverage and protection of the body against the antenna radiation. Moreover, the constraints of realization technology must be taken into account. The thesis is focused on the design and characterization of integrated antennas into military jackets. The research work is performed within the collaborative project GIANTE, supported by the DGA-RAPID frameproject, associating complementary partners: SAFRAN Sagem, laboratory LCIS, and ARDEJE. The work includes all the electromagnetic studies required by the environmental constraints by taking account the human body. It also includes the follow-up of the realizations made by ARDEJE that masters inkjet printing technologies. The RF characterization (impedance matching, bandwidth, radiation pattern) of antennas with a suitable bench test and the evaluation of global performances of antennas in functional environments (environment free from obstructions, urban areas, forest) are also part of the thesis work.

Broadband RF Front-End Design for Multi-Standard Receiver with High-Linearity and Low-Noise Techniques

Kim, Ju Sung 2011 December 1900 (has links)
Future wireless communication devices must support multiple standards and features on a single-chip. The trend towards software-defined radio requires flexible and efficient RF building blocks which justifies the adoption of broadband receiver front-ends in modern and future communication systems. The broadband receiver front-end significantly reduces cost, area, pins, and power, and can process several signal channels simultaneously. This research is mainly focused on the analysis and realization of the broadband receiver architecture and its various building blocks (LNA, Active Balun-LNA, Mixer, and trans-impedance amplifier) for multi-standard applications. In the design of the mobile DTV tuner, a direct-conversion receiver architecture is adopted achieving low power, low cost, and high dynamic-range for DVB-H standard. The tuner integrates a single-ended RF variable gain amplifier (RFVGA), a current-mode passive mixer, and a combination of continuous and discrete-time baseband filter with built-in anti-aliasing. The proposed RFVGA achieves high dynamic-range and gain-insensitive input impedance matching performance. The current-mode passive mixer achieves high gain, low noise, and high linearity with low power supplies. A wideband common-gate LNA is presented that overcomes the fundamental trade-off between power and noise match without compromising its stability. The proposed architecture can achieve the minimum noise figure over the previously reported feedback amplifiers in common-gate configuration. The proposed architecture achieves broadband impedance matching, low noise, large gain, enhanced linearity, and wide bandwidth concurrently by employing an efficient and reliable dual negative-feedback. For the wideband Inductorless Balun-LNA, active single-to-differential architecture has been proposed without using any passive inductor on-chip which occupies a lot of silicon area. The proposed Balun-LNA features lower power, wider bandwidth, and better gain and phase balance than previously reported architectures of the same kind. A surface acoustic wave (SAW)-less direct conversion receiver targeted for multistandard applications is proposed and fabricated with TSMC 0.13?m complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The target is to design a wideband SAW-less direct coversion receiver with a single low noise transconductor and current-mode passive mixer with trans-impedance amplifier utilizing feed-forward compensation. The innovations in the circuit and architecture improves the receiver dynamic range enabling highly linear direct-conversion CMOS front-end for a multi-standard receiver.

Analysis and Design of a Multifunctional Spiral Antenna

Chen, Teng-Kai 2012 August 1900 (has links)
The Archimedean spiral antenna is well-known for its broadband characteristics with circular polarization and has been investigated for several decades. Since their development in the late 1950's, establishing an analytical expression for the characteristics of spiral antenna has remained somewhat elusive. This has been studied qualitatively and evaluated using numerical and experimental techniques with some success, but many of these methods are not convenient in the design process since they do not impart any physical insight into the effect each design parameter has on the overall operation of the spiral antenna. This work examines the operation of spiral antennas and obtains a closed-form analytical solution by conformal mapping and transmission line model with high precision in a wide frequency band. Based on the analysis of spiral antenna, we propose two novel design processes for the stripline-fed Archimedean spiral antenna. This includes a stripline feed network integrated into one of the spiral arms and a broadband tapered impedance transformer that is conformal to the spiral topology for impedance matching the nominally-high input impedance of the spiral. A Dyson-style balun located at the center facilitates the transition between guided stripline and radiating spiral modes. Measured and simulated results for a probe-fed design operating from 2 GHz to over 20 GHz are in excellent agreements to illustrate the synthesis and performance of a demonstration antenna. The research in this work also provides the possibility to achieve conformal integration and planar structural multi-functionality for an Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV) with band coverage across HF, UHF, and VHF. The proposed conformal mapping analysis can also be applied on periodic coplanar waveguides for integrated circuit applications.

Návrh logaritmicko-periodické antény / Design of log-periodic antenna

Kliha, Marek January 2008 (has links)
This diploma thesis deal with the design of log-periodic antenna. The log-periodic antenna is self-complementary and broadband antenna. Antenna self-complementary structures are described only by angles. Input impedance of log-periodic antenna is equal to theoretical impedance ohms. The input impedance and radiation patterns of broadband antenna structures are independent of frequency over theoretically unlimited bandwidths. The log-periodic antennas provide linearly polarized radiation pattern. In this thesis is designed antenna for bandwidths 1 to 5GHz. In this diploma thesis is introduced design balanced unit, this is compound broadband balun and broadband impedance transformer. The broadband balun is based on conversion of microstrip line to balanced stripline. The Klopfenstein impedance taper is used for design. For simulation was used software from firma Zeland software IE3D.
