  • Abstract
    This paper addresses systems, technology and circuit aspects for the design of high-data-rate low-cost transceivers in the 60 GHz unlicensed band. For realizing such a transceiver, two different modulation schemes are under consideration, ASK and OFDM. For demonstration of a 60 GHz analog frontend, an appropriate SiGe:C BiCMOS technology is proposed. Several circuit building blocks for 60 GHz analog frontends are described in the paper.
