Abstract
This paper presents a non-coherent IR-UWB receiver for biomedical implants in the human body. The IR-UWB receiver is designed using 0.18μm CMOS technology. It is based on OOK demodulation. Its bandwidth is between [1;5] GHz. The receiver comprises two main blocks: the low noise amplifier (LNA) and the demodulator. The LNA has a measured maximum voltage gain of 18dB with minimum noise figure of 0.9 dB. Measurements show that the proposed receiver operates with data rate of 4 Gbps.
