  • Abstract
    A wideband FM demodulator circuit for a low-complexity UWB communications system based upon double FM techniques is presented. The receiver demodulates the FM-UWB signal without frequency translation. The FM demodulator presented here covers the low band (3.1-5 GHz) and consumes 10 mW. The 0.72 mm2 demodulator IC is implemented in 0.18 mum Si-Ge BiCMOS technology
