Behavioral modeling of WCDMA transceiver with VHDL-AMS language

This article presents the behavioral modeling of a WCDMA transceiver. The model has been developed in VHDL-AMS language. The WCDMA behavioral model is made of RF parameters like gain, impedance, IIP, leakages. The methodology used to develop this model is included in a top-down design flow. The model has been validated by the comparisons between simulation results and measurements on a silicon prototype
