Synthesis procedure for ladder acoustic wave filters starting in series resonator
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference report
Open AccessThis work provides a new procedure to synthesize acoustic wave ladder filters starting with series resonators. The novelty of this method relies in a new synthesis methodology to extract a series inductance in filter ... -
Transversal filters based on stacked crystal filters with spurious mode suppression
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe transversal filter topology consists of resonators which require both positive and negative coupling to the input/output which typically necessitates the use of a BALUN. In this paper, transversal filters based on ... -
FPGA implementation of memory-based digital predistorters with high-level synthesis
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents a scalable look-up table (LUT) architecture for implementing digital predistortion (DPD) linearizers in a field programmable gate array (FPGA) by using the high-level synthesis (HLS) software. This ... -
High temperatures BVD model for AlN-based solidly mounted resonators
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this paper we present an updated version of the well-known one dimensional model for Solidly Mounted Resonators (SMRs) based on Aluminum Nitride (AIN) for harsh environments at 2.4 GHz in sensing applications. Our model ... -
Modified Mason’s and BVD models for analysis of spurious modes due to ohmic losses in BAW resonators
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe study the presence of an additional peak appearing at the series resonance of SMRs due to the resistance of thin metallic electrodes, especially relevant in devices with large area. To properly account for this effect, ... -
Dataset reduction for neural network based digital predistorters under strong nonlinearities
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Conference report
Open AccessThe artificial neural networks (ANN) are gaining momentum in the digital predistorters (DPD) thanks to their inherently good approximation capabilities. Under strong or complex power amplifier nonlinearities, the size of ... -
Prediction of the optimal phase shift between control signals in dual-input power amplifiers
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper evaluates the effect of the phase shift between the two control signals in a dual-input load modulated balanced amplifier (LMBA). While the drain efficiency of the LMBA is not significantly affected by the phase ... -
Fast simulation method of distributed nonlinearities in surface acoustic wave resonators
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyUnderstanding the mechanism of nonlinearity in SAW/BAW devices is growing up in importance because these, even being weak, can cause desensitization of the receivers and limiting their performance. Proper nonlinear distributed ... -
Nonlinear performance on acoustic transversal filters
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe recently proposed transversal topology for creating acoustic filters allows to achieve arbitrary filter responses, in terms of position of transmission zeros and bandwidth, among others. This new topology might indeed ... -
An equivalent model for lateral modes on the H2 response of bulk acoustic wave resonators
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyAn equivalent circuital model is proposed for the lateral modes of a BAW resonator. It is based in the Mason model, adding a dispersive a transmission line to model the Lamb waves along the lateral dimensions of the ... -
Wideband transversal acoustic wave filters. Application to connected cars
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents the synthesis and circuit transformations of acoustic wave filters based on a transversal arrangement of the individual resonators. This configuration allows for the synthesis of any filter response ... -
