Abstract

The paper presents the integration of microwave and millimeter-wave techniques as well as the RF-front end and optical feeding system of a wireless broadband integrated services communications system at 60 GHz. The system is intended for indoor use and integrates applications ranging from low data rate mobiles to high rate portable or fixed stations. Antennas, microwave and MM-wave circuits and new optical components are being developed. A hardware demonstrator for proof of concept is currently being built and will incorporate several features of the entire system
