Abstract :
Over the last decade, analog cellular phones have been continuously reducing their size and weight, extending the battery life, and increasing the sales. The advent of digital cellular phones is expected to further accelerate this trend. This paper will review the semiconductor technologies to reduce power consumption in existing digital cellular phones and discuss the possibility of further improvement
