Abstract

This talk will present the latest work on microwave and mm-wave phased arrays at UCSD and in the world. The talk shows that one can build affordable phased arrays using low-cost silicon-RFICs (RF integrated circuits), and these phased-arrays are now being considered to replace the movable reflector for satellite communications on airplanes, ships and moving platforms. The silicon-based phased-arrays are also being considered for terrestrial 5G communication systems, to be employed first to replace the “last mile” for internet and video delivery to homes, and then for high-speed links between base-stations and a mobile user.  In this context, phased-array systems achieving Gbps at 300 meters and 1000 meters will be presented. It will be shown that low-cost phased-arrays have changed the way we think about our future communication systems from SATCOM to 5G.
