Advanced system-on-package (SOP) front-end passive solutions for RF and millimeter-wave wireless systems
Advanced system-on-package (SOP) front-end passive solutions for RF and millimeter-wave wireless systems Jong-Hoon Lee', Luca Marcaccioli2, Gerald DeJean', Cesar Lugo', Stephane Pinel', John Papapolymerou', Joy Laskar', Roberto Sorrentino', Manos M. Tentzeris' Abstract - In this paper, we present novel three-dimensional (3-D) compact and easy-to-design passive solutions (filters/duplexers, antenna
A six-port receiver analog front-end for direct conversion reception in the K-band
A six-port receiver analog front-end for direct conversion reception in the K-band Alexander Kolpin, Sebastian Winter, Robert Weigel Abstract - In modern radio communication systems high data rates are of great interest for home and business applications. Beside the use of novel techniques like MIMO the demand for bandwidth increases· in order to deal with these requirements. Frequency allocation
A 60 GHz six-port based reflectometer for nondestructive characterization of materials
A 60 GHz six-port based reflectometer for nondestructive characterization of materials Mostafa Maazi, David Glay, Tuami Lasri Abstract- This paper describes a S-Parameter Measurements system based on a Six-Port topology using Schottky zero bias diodes as power detectors. The system that operates at 60 GHz, called SPMS-60000, is built from a circulator-less topology to increase its suitability for

Thirty years ago... Fred Gardiol In 1974, in Montreux, Switzerland, the 4th European Microwave Conference was organized jointly with the exhibition Microwave' 74, starting a long series of joint events organized on a yearly basis. A former chairman remembers a pivotal period in the evolution of the European Microwave Conference. for future microwave events'. The Montreux Tourist Office (MTO) was c
The geometry of electrodynamics
The geometry of electrodynamics Peter Russer Abstract -- The formulation of electromagnetic theory can be simplified and the ability to create concepts can be improved by the use of geometrical methods. The exterior differential calculus establishes a direct connection to geometrical images and provides additional physical insight. Exterior differential calculus has simple and concise rules for c
The European Microwave Week 2004
The European Microwave Week 2004 Piet van Genderen I. Introduction The European Microwave Week (EuMW) has continued its annual cycle and convened in the RAI Exhibition and Congress Centre in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, from 11 to 15 October 2004. The event hosted four conferences, 13 workshops/short courses and a major exhibition.
RF filters based on surface-acoustic-wave and film-bulk acoustic-resonator technologies
RF filters based on surface-acoustic-wave and film-bulk-acoustic-resonator technologies Kenya Hashimoto', Masatsune Yamaguchi', Yoshio Satoh2 -1 Abstract -- This paper describes current status and future 'rends of recent RF filter devices based on surface acoustic wave (SAW) and film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) technologies, which are now widely used in modern mobile comtnunication systems. It
Multitone intermodulation and RF stability analysis of MEMS switching circuits by a globally convergent harmonic-balance technique
Multitone intermodulation and RF stability analysis of MEMS switching circuits by a globally convergent harmonic-balance technique Vittorio Rizzoli, Roberto Gaddi', Jacopo Iannacci', Diego Masotti, Franco Mastri2 Abstract -- The paper introduces an extended harmonic-balance (HB) technique allowing the efficient computation of distortion effects due to MEMS nonlinearities in RF circuits containing
Limits for CPM signals representation by Walsh functions
Limits for CPM signals representation by Walsh functions Francisco A. Monteiro', Antonio J. Rodrigues' 2 Abstract -- This paper explores the feasible limits for complexity reduction of a very simple front-end block for the calculus of phase transition metrics on a continuous phase modulation (CPM) receiver. A quasi-optimum receiver of very low complexity is attained by splitting the function of th
Foreword: the Proceedings of the EuMA
Foreword: the Proceedings of the EuMA hi April 2003 the General Assembly of the European Microwave Association approved a document entitled "Towards a renewed EMMA" a kind of roadmap for the development of the Association over the following years. The European Microwave Association (EuMA), founded in 1998 as a non-profit association with the aim of revitalizing the European Microwave Conference as
