Next generation wireless systems such as 5G cellular communications, front-haul and back-haul networks, military and automotive radar, and IEEE 802.11ad and 802.11ay WiGig are targeting a range of new capabilities including higher bandwidth, more connected devices, low latency, and better coverage. To address the wide bandwidth requirements, researchers are exploring the higher frequencies in the centimeter and millimeter wave bands where more spectrum is readily available.

Compared to the traditional bandwidths used at sub-6 GHz for cellular communications, the use of hundreds or even several gigahertz of spectrum at these higher frequencies require new components with much higher physical tolerances to achieve the desired performance. The measurement techniques used to measure the RF performance of these new devices also require special consideration.

This seminar will cover the basics of cm & mmWave technologies from the perspective of spectrum, wavelength, and bandwidth. A number of associated design and measurement challenges will be examined along with examples of how to solve them.
