1 – Short biography
Luiz Carlos Moreira was born in Jáu, 12/24/1964, São Paulo, Brazil. He received his B.Sc.(Eng.) in 1993;
M.Sc.(Eng.) degrees in Electrical Engineering in 1996 and completed his doctoral studies in Electrical
Engineering in 2002 both in the POLI/University of São Paulo. For his doctoral research he investigated
innovative structures of planar inductor to microwave integrated circuits under the supervision of
Professor Wilhelmus A. M. Van Noije. In this university, (2003), he begins research to design,
implementation and characterization of integrated inductors for RF circuits in CMOS technology a
postdoctoral program. In this, work he used for non-traditional inductors, as: vertical and solenoid
inductors. During (2004) he worked as a research collaborator at the CCS-Centro de Componentes
Semicondutores. And as a result implemented a process in APS-Active Pixel Sensor. In addition,
participated in the design of system interfaces for data transmission in wireless environments (wireless)
from (2003 to 2006), to study, design and implementation of circuits receiver/transmitter (transceiver)
CMOS fully integrated using standard CMOS technologies in the frequency of 2.45 GHz. He participated
in the project Millennium Institute - SCMN-System on Chip, Microsystems and Nanoelectronics from
(2002 to 2004). The objective of this project is to study, design and implementation of circuits receivertransmitters (transceivers) CMOS fully integrated in standard CMOS technology using a frequency of 2.45
GHz, which is being developed by the LSI / USP. His work, in this project, was design of inductors
structures. In (1994), he participated in the development of telecommunications systems in high-speed
CMOS, such as 1:8 demultiplexer with "byte align", 8:1 multiplexer (both operating at rates above 1.5
Gbit/s), His work was design circuit PLL and clock recovery operation at rates of around 1.0 Gbit/s to SDH
/ SONET. He joined the computer science and engineering department at Catholic University of Santos as
Assistant Professor in 1995. In (2009) he created the laboratory LPCIAD-Laboratório de Projetos de
Circuitos Integrados. He currently works as a researcher and coordinator of the laboratory. Besides, that
year he work, in NAMITEC as a consultant to the area of integrated inductors for RF systems. He selected
the three best work with students, in the area of microelectronics, as: "Design of a circuit PLL-Phase
Locked Loops 0.25um in CMOS technology" operating at a frequency of 1.35GHz (2008); "Design,
simulation and characterization of a polymorphic circuit controlled by voltage in process 0,25um/CMOS
technology" (2007), Characterization of APS circuits in voltage mode voltage and current (in CMOS
technology). 2005. In 2011 he joined the Queens University in group and Gigahertz Integrated Circuits
Group at Queen's University and his research activities are in the area high-frequency integrated circuits
for communications and radar applications, mainly in ultra wideband radar systems to investigate new
pulse generation.

2 – My research Interests
The major focus of my work, in past, was the design and fabrication of new planar inductor to RF circuits and
PLL-Phase Locked Loops. Currently, my main research focus is design and development of CMOS circuits for
the UWB-Ultra Wideband radio. This technology makes use an impulse waveform have many advantages,
such as implementation with low cost and low-power consumption, high data rates, and coexistence with
other wireless communication systems. However, high bandwidth and low power of the UWB signals impose
some difficult challenges in signal processing and implementation of the receiver. For this reason, it has
attracted a great deal of research interest and applied for a variety of commercial, medical, space and
military applications. For this application, some of its unique features of sensitivity and specificity make it
very attractive for many applications.
