This work presents a 14-band low complexity and high performance synthesizer architecture for MultiBand Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing operating in the range of 3.1 to 10.6 GHz. The synthesizer uses a single PLL with trivial divide-by-2 circuits, single side band mixers, low complexity filters, and multiplexers. Specifications of the synthesizer components are chosen in order to minimize the total spurs power and respect the IEEE802.15.3a recommandations.
