To address these issues, this letter proposes a two-stage digital predistortion (DPD) approach with neural-network (NN)-assisted virtual beamforming (VB) for interchannel effects in MIMO systems. The main DPD compensates for distortion of PAs, while the sub-DPD compensates for distortion of the interchannel effects. An experimental test was performed using a uniform linear array (ULA) at 3.5 GHz. Based on experimental results, the proposed method achieves up to 5.37-dBc improvement in adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR), closely replicates the linearization performance of OTA, and eliminates the need for remote OTA deployment.","PeriodicalId":73297,"journal":{"name":"IEEE microwave and wireless technology letters","volume":"35 3","pages":"346-349"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143601933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The source degeneration inductor together with the slotted-metal-line-based input network is utilized to achieve the optimum NM and gain matching simultaneously. To enhance power efficiency, a zero-ohm-transmission-line (ZTL)-based current-reuse (CR) technique is employed. For verification, a wideband LNA is fabricated in 130-nm SiGe process with a chip size of 0.57 mm2. The measured results demonstrate a peak small-signal gain of 20.4 dB, a 3-dB gain bandwidth (BW) ranging from 78 to 106 GHz, a minimum NF of 4 dB, an IP1dB exceeding −19.8 dBm, and a power dissipation of 12.5 mW with a supply voltage of 2.5 V.

In comparison to traditional balanced tripler, the TPMT uses an on-chip capacitor connected to a biased microstrip line (Ms) at the bias port, which not only provides dc and RF isolation but also functions as part of the diode matching. The impedance of bias port participates in the matching process of the diode, effectively reducing the parasitic effect associated with the on-chip capacitance and thereby enhancing the efficiency of the tripler. In addition, this study adopts the on-chip power combining technology to improve the power handling capability of the frequency tripler and minimize the effects of assembly errors. At room temperature, the measured results show that the tripler has an efficiency of 4.2%–13.42% over the 485–525 GHz band at 70–172-mW input power.","PeriodicalId":73297,"journal":{"name":"IEEE microwave and wireless technology letters","volume":"35 3","pages":"302-305"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143602007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is a generalization of cases where the bias is aligned to the waveguide’s axis and the material features gyrotropic behavior. This problem is solvable via a coupled-field volume integral equation-cylindrical Dini series expansion (CFVIE-CDSE) method, previously used for the calculation of electromagnetic (EM) scattering by anisotropic cylinders with oblique magnetic bias, by combining formerly constructed modified tensorial Green’s functions (GFs) to account for the boundary conditions (BCs) on the metallic walls. We validate the extended CFVIE-CDSE method with the HFSS commercial software and we study a microwave application of a G-610 aluminum garnet ferrite-loaded waveguide, magnetized under oblique magnetic bias, where we compute the complex cutoff frequencies.","PeriodicalId":73297,"journal":{"name":"IEEE microwave and wireless technology letters","volume":"35 3","pages":"266-269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143602043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In existing research on PT-symmetric WPT systems with laterally arranged multirelays, employed for expanding the lateral transfer region, only a special case has been considered for the coupling coefficient required to achieve PT symmetry. This strict special case condition increases the complexity and difficulty of implementing the system in reality. In this letter, a general condition of coupling coefficient for the PT-symmetric system with laterally arranged multirelays is analytically derived, by reducing a high-order Hamiltonian to an equivalent second-order one. The theoretical derivation is experimentally verified. An experimental system example with two relays demonstrates about a 100% increase in lateral transfer distance with stable power transfer, compared to the traditional system without relays. Our work paves the way for implementation of simpler high-order PT-symmetric systems.","PeriodicalId":73297,"journal":{"name":"IEEE microwave and wireless technology letters","volume":"35 3","pages":"366-369"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143611759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
