description A fully differential architecture from the antenna to the integrated circuit is proposed for radio transceivers in this paper. The physical implementation of the architecture into truly single-chip radio transceivers is described for the first time. Two key building blocks, the differential antenna and the differential transmit-receive (T-R) switch, were designed, fabricated, and tested.
