Abstract
Many pilot projects are developed using USN(Ubiquitous Sensor network). Recently USN has more attention to be used for the applications of circumstance monitoring. In order to acquire information from sensor nodes, sensor nodes need a RF transceiver. In this paper we describe the design of a RF transceiver, based on IEEE 802.15.4, for sensor nodes operating in 2.4GHz frequency band. The architecture to be implemented and the electrical performance specifications satisfied IEEE 802.15.4 are presented. The noise figure of a receiver, selectivity, phase noise of a frequency synthesizer, transmitter's linearity and spectrum mask are derived as a design parameters from the specifications of IEEE 802.15.4.
