Preface and Acknowledgments

Wireless transceivers combining several standards in one unit are of key importance. In order to reach the ultimate goal of maximizing the performance-to-cost ratio of such modules, a careful study of the target application, the architecture, and the frequency planning is strongly required. One of the most challenging tasks is the implementation of the frequency synthesizer. This challenge is compounded by the traditional technical difficulties in designing frequency synthesizers as well as the new requirements that i
