Abstract :
This paper reports an ultrahigh-speed yet power-efficient CMOS transceiver with a carrier frequency of over 100 GHz. The FP (frequency-power) plot is proposed to choose an appropriate set of bias voltages for achieving low-power operation at a high operation frequency. Finally, 11-Gb/s wireless data transfer over a distance of 3 m with a CMOS 135-GHz transceiver is successfully demonstrated based on this design.
