Recent developments in high integration multi-standard CMOS transceivers for personal communication systems

Issues associated with the integration of transceiver components on a single silicon substrate are discussed. In particular, recently proposed receiver and transmitter architectures for high integration are examined on the promise of providing multistandard capability. In addition, existing barriers to lower power transceiver operation are examined as well as some proposed directions for future integrated transceiver research and development.
