Includes bibliographical references (p. 79-82). We have implemented a segment of an RF transmitter signal chain in discrete components using bipolar transistors. We formulated both a broadband amplifier and mixer as mathematical programs (MP) and extracted Pareto-optimal (PO) [1-3] tradeoff surfaces. Abstracting these PO surfaces in place of the blocks at the system level, we have demonstrated a new hierarchical system design methodology. Furthermore, the optimization, simulation, and measured results are consistent at all levels of hierarchy. Keywords: System design, optimization, geometric programming, analog circuits, Pareto-optimal. by William R. Sanchez.
