  Abstract

This paper describes the design and implementation of an integrated LTCC front-end module for the IEEE802.11a WLAN applications by performing the behavioral-level simulation using measurement-based behavioral model. To meet the IEEE802.11a WLAN standard, a system transmitting 1024 symbols through 64-QAM process at the rate of 54Mbps should be implemented and nonlinear properties are confirmed by simulations of ACPR and EVM in this circumstance. The right offsets of ACPR which are 30㎒, 20㎒, and 11㎒ distant from the center frequency of 5.8㎓ are 49.36㏈c, 36.90㏈c, and 24.58㏈c, respectively. The left offsets are 50.14㏈c, 30.04㏈c, and 28.85㏈c, respectively and EVM is 2.94%. The size of the module implemented with LTCC five-layer substrates is 13.44㎜ × 14.2㎜. The measured characteristics of the transmitter show P1dB of 16.2㏈m and power gain of 16.73㏈. Those of the receiver exhibit the small signal gain of 16.24㏈ and noise figure of 7.83㏈.
