Multifunction, Multiband, and Multimode Wireless Receivers: A Path Toward the Future
Jaber Moghaddasi, Ke Wu
Abstract
Emerging and disruptive information and communication technology (ICT) R&D is principally driven by the growing needs of signal generation, collection, transmission, processing, and storage as well as the applications of massive data sets in our fast-evolving information society. Such data set-related operations call for fundamental wireless- and wireline-empowered capabilities as well as many others. The next breed in ICT is closely related to, and enabled on a large scale by, the much-publicized 5G and future heterogeneous wireless systems [1]-[4], which in the future will connect everyone and everything at different speeds for various functions and services. This will propel us toward a much more connected, smarter world.
