[NLRS] IEEE Virtual Talk "100-300 GHz Wireless: Transistors, IC’s Systems"

[Thomas Murphy]

The IEEE Cedar Rapids/Central Iowa Section is having a virtual talk that 
my be of interest.

    100-300 GHz Wireless: Transistors, IC’s Systems
    Distinguished Microwave Lecture
    https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/474809

    Date: 11 Apr 2025
    Time: 12:00 AM UTC to 01:15 AM UTC (April 10, 7:00 pm CDT)

    Prof. Mark Rodwell of Univ. of Calif. Santa Barbara

    Topic: Millimeter wave (100-300 GHz) devices and systems for
    communication and imaging

    The opportunities and the research challenges are described for the
    development of 100-300GHz wireless communications and imaging
    systems. In such links, short wavelengths permit massive spatial
    multiplexing both for network nodes and point-point links,
    permitting aggregate transmission capacities approaching 1Tb/s.
    100-300GHz radar imaging systems can provide thousands of image
    pixels and sub-degree angular resolution from small apertures,
    supporting foul-weather driving and aviation. Challenges include the
    mm-wave IC designs, the physical design of the front-end modules,
    the complexity of the back-end digital beamformer required for
    spatial multiplexing, and, for imaging, the development of system
    architectures requiring far fewer RF channels than the number of
    image pixels. Transistor development, IC design, and system design
    will be described for our efforts to develop 140GHz massive MIMO
    wireless hubs, and 210GHz and 280GHz MIMO backhaul links.

It looks like the meeting link will be sent out just before the event, 
so pre-registration is required. Register before April 10th to get the 
calendar invite and, eventually, the Zoom link.
