Summer school on wireless semiconductors and wireless communication systems
The 4th RaMSiS Summer School was held June, 2-4. The summer school included lectures from experts in the fields of wireless semiconductors and wireless communication systems, from both industry and academia.
This Summer School is important for anyone interested in understanding the RF system requirements for successful WiMAX or LTE systems and in learning broadband CMOS circuit design techniques (RF front ends, Frac-N synthesizers, high speed data converters, etc.) used in building such complex multi-band radios, especially for mobile handhelds. The course will focus on the latest in transmitter and receiver architectures and circuits highlighting the major design tradeoffs. Other topics such as transmitter linearization and efficiency enhancement techniques will be emphasized as they are essential to the success of mobile wideband systems.
The school is intended for graduate students and researchers as well as design engineers, and product managers at industry. Participants will be awarded 4.5 credit points according to the Swedish system upon completion of the course. The Summer School had about 30 students.
The program included lectures from experts in the fields of wireless semiconductors and wireless communication systems, from both industry and academia.
This event was cosponsored by the IEEE and by Cadence Design Systems in cooperation with the Cadence Academic Network.
