Abstract :
In this paper a new concept of RF transmitter dedicated to low-power low-voltage applications using injection locked oscillator is described. A 2-GHz injection locked oscillator was implemented in a 0.35 mum BiCMOS STMicroelectronics technology in order to validate the theoretical results of the GMSK modulation of such oscillators
