A 28.16-Gb/s Area-Efficient 60GHz CMOS Bi-Directional Transceiver for IEEE 802.11ay

摘要

This paper introduces a 60-GHz CMOS transceiver designed for IEEE 802.11ad/ay featuring the area-efficient bi-directional operation. The proposed bi-directional PA-LNA occupies for less than half on-chip area while staying a similar performance with the conventional standalone PA and LNA. The measured noise figure in RX mode is 4.8dB at 62.56GHz, and the measured EVM is -26dB in TX mode with an output power of -4.2dBm. Thanks to the compact PA-LNA, this work realizes a maximum data-rate of 28.16Gb/s in 16QAM with only 3mm
