Abstract:
This article presents a compact 24–30-GHz phased array transceiver (TRX) front end (FE) with high transmitter (TX) power efficiency and low receiver (RX) noise figure (NF) in a 130-nm bipolar CMOS (BiCMOS) technology supporting different 5th generation mobile network (5G) frequency range 2 (FR2) bands (n257, n258, and n261). We introduce …
