Detterer, P. (author), Erdin, C. (author), Nabi, M. (author), de Gyvez, J.P. (author), Basten, A.A. (author), Jiao, H. (author)To handle the rigid power and energy constraints in the Digital BaseBand (DBB) of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)s, we introduce approximate computing as a new power reduction method. The Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) computation is a key element in DBB processing. We evaluate the trade-off in RSSI computation between Quality-of...conference paper 2019

Withagen, J.C.J.G. (author), Annema, A.J. (author), Nauta, B. (author), van Vliet, F.E. (author)An 8-10 GHz X-band upconversion quadrature mixer stage implemented in 250 nm SiGe BiCMOS is presented. Orthogonality of the spurious responses caused by clock feed through, I/Q mismatch and baseband harmonics after self-mixing was exploited to realize a baseband calibration scheme reducing all in-band spurs down to below -73dBc, for baseband...conference paper 2016

TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author), van Dijk, R. (author), van der Houwen, E.H. (author), Maas, A.P.M. (author)A phased-array FMCW radar has been design and built from COTS components. The generation of the frequency sweep is done by mixing a central local oscillator signal with a baseband sweep of a direct digital synthesizer (DDS). To ensure maximum flexibility the receive side has been equipped with it's own swept signal. The transmit frequency...conference paper 2008
