Cognitive Radio Receiver Front-Ends: RF/Analog Circuit Techniques Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2014 Edition

This book focuses on the architecture and circuit design for cognitive radio receiver front-ends. The authors first provide a holistic explanation of RF circuits for cognitive radio systems. This is followed by an in-depth exploration of existing techniques that can be utilized by circuit designers. Coverage also includes novel circuit techniques and architectures that can be invaluable for designers for cognitive radio systems.

• Discusses in detail the circuit-level challenges that exist for cognitive radio systems;
• Provides readers with a holistic understanding of RF circuits for cognitive radio systems;
• Enables communications engineers and systems designers to design better cognitive radio architectures and communication protocols.
