Abstract :
Super-regenerative receiver (SRR) has been widely used for many decades in short-range wireless communications because of simplicity, small number of electronic components, low cost, and low power consumption. The reduction of the number of components not only reduces the cost but also increases the reliability of the systems. This paper presents a theory of super-regenerative reception based on original architecture invented by Armstrong in 1922, with the example of ISM band SRR using Q-multiplier planar resonator.
