  • Abstract
    This paper reports experimental characteristics of transmission lines in standard CMOS technology up to 110 GHz, three structures, coplanar waveguide (CPW), microstrip line (MS) and grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) are designed in the same process with low loss and satisfaction of metal density requirements. Good agreement between EM simulation and measurement is obtained, attenuation as low as 0.06 dB/mm, 0.08 dB/mm and 0.04 dB/mm are achieved, respectively.
