Abstract
Design of the radio systems operating in the 60 GHz band raises a number of questions regarding the frequency-domain performance of transceiver subsystems. This work, combining the baseband and RF parts of the architecture, shows that a system-level simulation model allows identifying bottlenecks in the integrated functioning of various subsystems. Comparative error rate analysis highlights the propagation channel effect domination in performance limiting.
