CMOS，Cognitive and mmW-A Wireless Revolution

Brief Abstract:

The emergence of millimeter wave and sub-THz (up to 300GHz) CMOS based technology and its potential for true monolithic single chip integration makes the millimeter-wave spectrum more attractive than ever for supporting a new class of systems and applications ranging from ultra-high speed data transmission, video distribution, portable radar, sensing, detection and imaging of all kinds. In this paper, we present the state of the art of millimeter wave single-chip CMOS digital radio and phased array solutions. We will review the market pull and review the convergence of millimeter wave CMOS digital radio, phased array technology, low power multi-gigabit mixed-signal processing and embedded phased array antenna techniques.  These solutions offer the lowest energy per bit transmitted wirelessly at multi-gigabit rates to meet the very stringent low-power specifications for battery operated consumer electronic portable devices.
