Student project at imec (Thesis)

What will you be doing?

The need for high data rate transfer is emerging in biomedical applications, such as in brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and multimedia solutions, e. g., virtual reality . Impulse Radio Ultrawideband (IR-UWB) technology is a promising solution due to its wideband operation. A duplexer system is demanded for spectrum and hardware efficiency in such high data rate communication systems. Moreover, it enables the co-existence of connectivity and sensing, which is called “Radcom.” Through this project, we are targeting to design a wideband full-duplex system for high-speed IR-UWB. The project will cover the following activities:

• Literature studies on applications.

• Understanding both analog and digital/system design methodologies.

• Architecture study and proposal.

• Circuit implementation.

• Layout and post-layout simulation.
