Abstract

See full text

An ultra low-power transmission system for use with a battery-operated device. The ultra-low power transmission system comprises an encoded transmitter and an addressable ultra -low power receiver. The ultra low-power receiver comprises an RF front-end block for receiving and demodulating an incoming RF signal. The RF front-end block includes an amplifier for amplifying the received RF signal and a frequency discriminator for demodulating the amplified RF signal to produce a baseband signal. The amplifier and the frequency discriminator are each comprised of enhancement mode, high-mobility electron transistors (E-HEMTs). The ultra low-power further receiver comprises a correlator for receiving the baseband signal from the frequency discriminator and detecting a codeword therein. The correlator comprises a plurality of switched capacitors for storing samples of the baseband signal. The correlator is operable to couple the plurality of switched capacitors in order to integrate the samples stored thereon.
