Future microwave and millimetre-wave communications systems and vehicle radar systems will depend on phased array antennae and the microelectronic chips that enable these. This program will create novel and disruptive technologies in the field of radio frequency (RF) integrated circuit architectures. Over the next 5 years, innovation will focus on four related areas: i) alias lock loop frequency synthesis architectures, ii) integrated phased array receivers and radar architectures, iii) high density integrated linear phase shifters suitable for 5G cellular networks, and iv) circuits for phased array satellite antennae. It is my intention to develop this research program to the point where early demonstrations can attract project funding from industry and elsewhere.

未来的微波和毫米波通信系统以及车载雷达系统将依赖于相控阵天线和实现这些功能的微电子芯片。该计划将在射频（RF）集成电路架构领域创造新颖和颠覆性的技术。在未来5年，创新将集中在四个相关领域：i）混叠锁定环频率合成架构，ii）集成相控阵接收机和雷达架构，iii）适用于5G蜂窝网络的高密度集成线性移相器，以及iv）相控阵卫星天线电路。我的意图是发展这个研究计划，使早期的示范能够吸引来自工业和其他地方的项目资金。
