Abstract
This talk will discuss a millimeter-wave defense application of SiGe-based phased arrays. The unique advantage of this technology is its ability to deliver large wafers with high yield and low-cost, coupled with acceptable RF performance such as NF and output power for 94 GHz applications. System-level considerations will be described as the basis for understanding the suitability of the technology.
