  • Abstract
    This paper provides an overview of numerous recent advancements in RF front end technology. Various techniques for designing novel front-end technology are outlined. Examples of the application of the active integrated antenna design approach are given for both the high-power transmitter and low-noise receiver modes. In addition, several architectures implementing novel mixer designs are presented to achieve baseband receivers and retrodirective arrays
