Abstract :
A 60-GHz planar integrated phased array is suggested. The array includes four-element microstrip patch antennas with an array spacing of 0.6λ. Each antenna is connected with a sub-harmonic I/Q mixer based on anti-parallel diode pairs (APDPs). Applied RF, LO, IF frequencies are 61.87 GHz, S9.56 GHz, and 2.75 GHz, respectively. Data transmission at up to 200-Mbps data rates for BPSK modulation is successfully demonstrated.
