Title of Dissertation/Thesis：The Low-power Low-pass Filter Design for Zero-IF Transceiver

Abstract:
Wireless body area network technology is one of the research hotspots in recent years. It can be used for wireless medical monitoring, personal entertainment applications and so on. According to the IEEE 802.16.5 protocol, a typical wireless body area network is composed by a gateway and a number of nodes. Through the wireless communication with the nodes, the gateway can control the basic functions of the nodes and achieves higher-level functions. In order to work with the nodes, which are working in different frequency bands and sending and receiving data bit in different rates, we need to design an multi-frequency, multi-mode and multi-rate wireless transceiver chip for the gateway. The main purpose of this article is to design a configurable low-power low-pass filter applied to the bandwidth of the zero-IF transceiver, and the theoretical discussion of the filter design and circuit implementation are also introduced.
