2. 1. Mixers and Multifunctional MMICs for Millimeter-Wave Applications

   Author : Sten Gunnarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; G-band; double-balanced Gilbert mixer; sub-harmonically pumped resistive mixer; pHEMT; receiver; image reject mixer; dual-quadrature mixer; balanced resistive mixer; resistive mixer; 220 GHz; high data rate; drain mixer; 53 GHz; single-chip; V-band.; radiometer; mixer; broadband wireless communication; multifunctional; MMIC; GaAs; mHEMT; transmitter; 60 GHz;

   Abstract : This thesis treats the design and characterization of different mixer and multifunctional monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs) in GaAs pHEMT and mHEMT technologies. The MMICs operate at the V (50 – 75 GHz) and G (140 – 220 GHz) bands and several of them demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, level of integration, novel topologies, and/or novel functionality.

4. 2. 60 GHz Mixer and Multifunctional MMICs in GaAs pHEMT and mHEMT technologies

   Author : Sten Gunnarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Image reject mixer; Broadband wireless communication; Single-chip; Multifunctional; Mixer; Balanced resistive mixer; GaAs; Dual-quadrature mixer; 60 GHz; Receiver; pHEMT; MMIC; High data-rate; Double balanced Gilbert mixer; mHEMT; Transmitter; V-band;

   Abstract : In recent years, the 60 GHz band has gained increased academic and commercial interest mainly due to the relative large amount of license free and little used frequency spectrum located in vicinity of 60 GHz. The exact locations of these free frequency bands varies locally but the 5962 GHz band overlap around the world and is therefore a true world wide license free band. READ MORE

5. 3. Integration of Planar Antennas with MMIC Active Frontends for THz Imaging Applications

   Author : Yogesh Karandikar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sub-Harmonic Resistive Mixer; Planar Antennas; Gaussian Coupling; MMIC; Gilbert Cell Mixer; THz;

   Abstract : In recent years, there has been constant growth in using THz frequencies or mm, sub- mm wavelengths for various applications such as: Astronomy, Atmospheric studies, security, bio-medical imaging. All these applications are now seen more feasible due to rapid enhancements of semi-conductor processing technologies. READ MORE
