Abstract :
The recent advances of CMOS and SiGe process technologies have now made the design of low-cost highly integrated millimeter-wave radios possible in silicon. In combination with an optimum packaging approach, this represents a unique opportunity to develop Gb/s radio that could address the increasing demand in term of data rate throughput of the emerging broadband wireless communication systems. In this paper, we discuss the circuit and module challenges that enables a successful deployment of 60 GHz gigabits wireless systems.
