A three-stage differential topology using transmission gate was adopted in order to maintain wide and linear tuning range and a low phase-noise. Monte-Carlo analysis were performed for phase-shift response of individual stages, which is an important figure of merit in five-port works. It was observed a fairly linear correlation between control voltage and oscillation frequency in the range between 200 MHz and 1800 MHz. The VCO was preliminarily designed for IBM 130nm CMOS technology / Este trabalho apresenta um VCO anel banda-larga para ser utilizado em receptores para R?dio Cognitivo baseados no correlator a cinco portas. Uma arquitetura diferencial de tr?s est?gios com porta de transmiss?o ? utilizada como forma de manter uma sintonia linear em larga faixa de frequ?ncias, bem como, um baixo ru?do de fase. An?lises de Monte-Carlo foram feita para avaliar as varia??es de fase em cada est?gio, o que constitui uma figura de m?rito importante em receptores baseados no correlator de cinco portas. Observou-se correspond?ncia razoavelmente linear entre tens?o de controle e freq??ncia de oscila??o na faixa compreendida entre 200 MHz e 1800 MHz. O VCO foi preliminarmente projetado para tecnologia CMOS IBM de 130 nan?metros

The common objective of this project is implementation of software defined radio (SDR) into FPGA. The text contains review and comparison of several hardware concepts intended for SDRs implementation then the methods for digital implementation of various components of radios as the filters, mixers and others are mentioned. Part of the text introduces used hardware platform and describes software support for designing, simulations and implementation into hardware. Significant part of project describes complex of external hardware components as filter, amplifier and control panel designed and built within the project realization. But the main part of project demonstrates design of the software solution of radio receiver. There is specified architecture of radio for FM broadcast receiving, next the more complex systems with carrier recovery algorithm are presented. These systems are able to work with AM, BPSK and QPSK modulations. It is possible to implement all these receivers into hardware and verify their operation. The practical laboratory theme has been outlined within the project run.

This thesis deals with a theoretical analysis of the basic parameters of receivers, input circuit architecture and signal digitization. According to the specified assignment it is outlined block scheme of front end for software receiver with specified components and the total bilance is calculated. Individual parts of the system are designed and realized. This is a set of four input filters for bandwidths: short waves up to 30 MHz, 87,5-108 MHz, 144-148 MHz and 174-230 MHz. The main point of design is a circuit containing a low-noise amplifiers, switches, and two amplifiers with adjustable amplification. Mainly are used integrated circuits from Analog Devices corporation. To control the various switches and adjustable amplifiers was designed a separate panel, which is connected to the main circuit via a cable. In the last phase was the whole system and its components subjected to measurements. Thanks to a number of mounted SMA connectors it is possible to measure different parts of the system and we are able to modify it partially.

Dizertační práce je zaměřena na softwarově definované přijímače určené k úzkopásmové družicové komunikaci. Komunikační kanály družicových spojů zahrnujících komunikaci s hlubokým vesmírem jsou zatíženy vysokými úrovněmi šumu, typicky modelovaného AWGN, a silným Dopplerovým posuvem signálu způsobeným mimořádnou rychlostí pohybu objektu.

Algoritmy jsou modelovány v prostředí MATLAB Simulink a tyto modely jsou využity pro ověření vlastností simulacemi. Modely byly také využity k experimentálním testům na reálném signálu přijatém z družice PSAT v laboratoři experimentálních družic na ústavu radioelektroniky.

[pt] Nesta tese de doutorado foi investigado, por meio de simulações computacionais e em laboratório utilizando Matlab, GNU Radio e GNU Radio Companion (GRC), o desempenho de redes de Rádio Cognitivo com sensoriamento individual (SS) e com sensoriamento cooperativo (CSS) do espectro considerando o algoritmo não paramétrico de detecção de energia e diferentes abordagens deste método de detecção. Foi também implementado um cenário de medição em tempo real usando os equipamentos de rádio definido por software (SDR por suas siglas em inglês) conhecidos como Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP). Os cenários de medição consideram a cooperação, baseada na utilização de regras de fusão de dados do tipo hard, no sensoriamento local de sinais de TV Digital por usuários cognitivos não licenciados. A principal contribuição desta tese de doutorado baseia-se na formulação do método de energia combinando os conceitos da teoria clássica do sensoriamento de espectro das redes de Rádio Cognitivo, tanto com sensoriamento individual (SS) como sensoriamento cooperativo (CSS) de espectro, com um cenário de implementação em laboratório levando em conta os requisitos, parâmetros técnicos e de operação do equipamento de medição SDR. / [en] This PhD thesis investigate the performance of cognitive radio networks with single sensing (SS) and cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) networks through computational and laboratory simulations using Matlab, GNU Radio and the GNU Radio Companion (GRC) computational radio software, considering the non-parametric energy detection method and different approaches to this method. The implementation also includes a real-time measurement testbed scenario using Software Defined Radio (SDR) equipment, known as Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP). The measurement scenarios consider the cooperative local sensing of the digital TV by non-licensed cognitive radio users, based on hard fusion rules. The main contribution of this doctoral thesis is based on the formulation of the energy detection method combining the concepts of the classical theory of the spectrum sensing of Cognitive Radio networks, with both individual sensing (SS) and cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS), in a laboratory implementation scenario according to the requirements, technical parameters and operation of the SDR measuring equipment.
