      Accés obert
      [ANGLÈS] This project consists on the design and the implementation of a radio frequency transceiver. A transceiver is a device which is able to be a transmitter and a receiver and, therefore, it is suitable for commuting ...
    • Joint symbol and chip synchronization for a burst-mode-communication superregenerative MSK receiver 

      López Riera, Alexis; Águila López, Francisco del; Palà Schönwälder, Pere; Bonet Dalmau, Jordi; Giralt Mas, Ma. Rosa; Moncunill Geniz, Francesc Xavier (2017-01-05)
      Article
      Accés obert
      In this paper we describe a superregenerative (SR) MSK receiver able to operate in a burst-mode framework where synchronization is required for each packet. The receiver is based on an SR oscillator which provides samples ...
    • A proof-of-concept superregenerative QPSK transceiver 

      López Riera, Alexis; Palà Schönwälder, Pere; Bonet Dalmau, Jordi; Moncunill Geniz, Francesc Xavier; Águila López, Francisco del; Giralt Mas, Ma. Rosa (2014)
      Comunicació de congrés
      Accés obert
      In this paper we present a description and experimental verification of an HF-band proof-of-concept superregenerative transceiver for QPSK signals. We describe a simple implementation of an all-digital, FPGA-based, QPSK ...
    • Superregenerative reception of narrowband FSK modulations 

      Palà Schönwälder, Pere; Bonet Dalmau, Jordi; López Riera, Alexis; Moncunill Geniz, Francesc Xavier; Águila López, Francisco del; Giralt Mas, Ma. Rosa (2015-03-01)
      Article
      Accés obert
      In this paper we investigate the possibilities of narrowband FSK detection using a superregenerative (SR) receiver. Previous SR FM demodulation techniques rely on detecting the amplitude variations caused by the different ...
