Following the 'Primer on RF Design' course, this class focuses on system-level issues. We discuss several important design considerations including noise, non-linearity, distortion, sensitivity and dynamic range and their impact in selecting the appropriate system architecture. The course also covers common receiver architectures including superheterodyne and direct-conversion receivers. Pre-requisite: ECE 60422.
Learning Outcomes1Describe and articulate the basic design principles of RF modules and transceivers.
2Describe and articulate common transceiver architectures.
3Use tools and analysis techniques to estimate the impact of non-linear effects, noise and interferences on transceivers.
