o Designed and characterized integrated multifunctional single chip direct conversion transmitter and receiver chipset at 110-170G consisting of LNA, PA, I/Q modualtor/demodulator, LO mulitplier chain, LO/IF amplifiers using 130 nm SiGe BiCMOS which resulted in state-of-the-art results.o Designed complex mixers using 22nm Fully Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator (FD-SOI) CMOS technologies for high speed wireless communication. o Involved in two application demonstrators, a telecom D-band radio link for the frequency band 141.5-148 GHz, and micromachined packaging of front-end chipset into heterogeneous integration platform together with KTH, Stockholm and Ericsson AB, Gothenburg. News article:Four years ago, researchers at Chalmers raised international attention with their world record in fast, wireless data traffic. The record still keeps them and now they have taken the step out of the lab into reality.Since last winter there are two anonymous antennas on each other at Ericsson at Lindholmen in Gothenburg. They send and receive data via radio link at an impressive rate: 5 Gbit / s, which is 50 times more than most of us have via fiber thread. And it's 200 meters between the houses.
