Abstract:
An amplifying system is provided for use as a high sensitivity receive booster or replacement for a low noise amplifier in a receive chain of a communication device. The amplifying system includes an amplifying circuit configured to receive an input signal having a first frequency and generate an oscillation based on the input signal, a sampling circuit coupled to the amplifying circuit and configured to terminate the oscillation based on a predetermined threshold to periodically clamp and restart the oscillation to generate a series of pulses modulated by the oscillation and by the input signal, and one or more resonant circuits coupled with the amplifying circuit and configured to establish a frequency of operation and to generate an output signal having a second frequency, the second frequency being substantially the same as the first frequency.

Claim (Index 14):
A method for improving receive sensitivity in a receive chain of a communication device, the method comprising:\n amplifying, by an amplifier, a receive input signal having a first frequency and generating an oscillation based on the input signal; sampling the amplified signal; comparing an input signal magnitude of the input signal with a predetermined input signal magnitude threshold; terminating the oscillation when the input signal magnitude is equal to or greater than the predetermined input signal magnitude threshold so as to periodically clamp and restart the oscillation to generate a series of voltage spikes; and outputting, by a resonant circuit and without performing frequency conversion of the input signal, an output signal having RF frequencies substantially the same as, the first frequency.
