Abstract :
A single chip, dual-functionality radio and FMCW radar transceiver, operating at 140 GHz is described. Doppler, loop-back and 4Gb/s NLOS radio link demos, over the air and distances exceeding one meter, are demonstrated. The second part of the paper presents novel, sub−1.8 V circuit topologies intended for a low power, high resolution 120 GHz radar transceiver with self-calibration capabilities. The measured receiver noise figure, gain and phase noise are 7.5 dB, 20 dB and −100 dBc/Hz@1MHz offset respectively.
