This project focuses mainly on the implementation and measurement of an ultra-high efficiency power amplifier (PA) and up-converter for a 180 GHz transmitter with at least 30 GHz bandwidth. This involves extensive optimization especially of the transistor structure and power-cell layout while, via accurate compact modeling, including physical effects such as breakdown, thermal coupling, distributed, and charge storage effects that impact efficiency and linearity at mm-wave frequencies. The energy consumption of the transmitter is aimed to be further reduced by adapting its operation period to the system’s duty cycle, thus requiring the investigation of transient settling effects during turning the device on and -off.

本项目主要致力于实现和测量一个超高效率的功率放大器（PA）和上变频器的180 GHz的发射机与至少30 GHz的带宽。这涉及广泛的优化，特别是晶体管结构和功率单元布局，同时通过准确的紧凑建模，包括影响毫米波频率下效率和线性度的击穿、热耦合、分布和电荷存储效应等物理效应。发射器的能量消耗旨在通过使其操作周期适应系统的占空比来进一步降低，因此需要在打开和关闭设备期间调查瞬态稳定效应。
