A 120 GHz/140 GHz Dual-Channel OOK Receiver Using 65 nm CMOS Technology

摘要

The design and measured results of a 120 GHz/140 GHz dual-channel OOK (ON-OFF Keying) receiver are presented in this paper. Because a signal with very wide frequency width is difficult to process in a single-channel receiver, a dual-channel configuration with channel selection is adopted in the proposed receiver. The proposed receiver is fahri-cated using 65 nm CMOS technology. The measured data rate of 3.0 and 3.6 Gbps, minimum sensitivity of -25.6 and -27.1 dBm, communication distance of 0.30 and 0.38 m are achieved in the 120- and 140-GHz receiver, respectively. The correct channel selection is achieved in the 120-GHz receiver. These results indicate the possibility of the CMOS multiband receiver operating at over 100 GHz for low-power high-speed proximity wireless communication systems.
