Abstract :
This paper describes the challenges and trends in today´s RF industry. Beginning with a brief look at the wireless communications environment, we examine receiver architectures and their building blocks from the point of view of monolithic integration. We then present trends in circuit and architecture design, device and technology development, and wireless infrastructures
