Abstract

An all-digital and low power PSK baseband receiver circuit using silicon on insulator technology (SOI) is designed for space applications. The receiver employs double differential detection to improve the receiver´s robustness to Doppler effect as well as a 1 bit A/D at the front to reduce complexity and power. Operating at a UHF frequency (435 MHz), the receiver supports a wide range of data rates (0.1-100 kb/s). From test results, the power consumption of the baseband circuit, including the 1 bit A/D converter is below 1 mW for data rates up to 100 kb/s.
