5 Gbps BPSK CMOS transmitter with on-chip antenna using Gaussian monocycle pulses

An IR-UWB transmitter was designed and fabricated with on-chip UWB antenna in 65 nm CMOS. Gaussian monocycle pulses (GMPs) were produced using up-slope and down slope of digital signal. The transmitter generated bi-phase modulated pulses of GMP and 10 GHz center frequency. 5 Gbps differential GMP was generated by Pseudorandom bit sequence of 2
⁷
with a power consumption of 7.56 mW. The energy per bit was 1.51 pJ/bit. GMP transmission was presented by on-chip antenna whose bandwidth was 23.6 GHz.
