| The mass-market for communication electronics requires cheap and energy-efficient solutions with a high relibility, taking into account increasing mutual interference. These solutions are expected to be found in effectively combining the technical possibilities in the RF and BB part of the radio receiver, and the system and implementation work. The design paradigm of products in a mass market seems to shift to (1) adaptive repression of interference, in which (2) adaptivity is partly realised in the RF frontend. Goal of the project is to gain design knowledge (FR/BB co-design) of wireless communication systems, with a focus on adaptive RF and adaptive algorithms for repression of interference. One is especially interested in MIMO (multiple input multiple output) technology, e.g., the use of multiple antennas on the sending, as well as on the receiving side. The intention is to design and build a flexible demonstrator. |
