A 60-GHz Single-Chip Transceiver for WPAN Applications

Abstract

A fully-integrated 60-GHz MMIC transceiver in 0.15-mum pHEMT is presented in this paper. The transceiver converts the frequency band of 5 GHz wireless LAN to millimeter-wave of 51 to 63 GHz. The measured up-conversion gain is -10 dB and the measured down-conversion gain is 7 dB. This transceiver chip can be used in dual mode broadband and wireless network system.
