摘要: A phased-array receiver that may be effectively implemented on a silicon substrate. A receiver includes multiple radio frequency (RF) front-ends, each configured to receive a signal with a given delay relative to the others such that the gain of the received signal is highest in a given direction. The receiver also includes a power combination network configured to accept an RF signal from each of the RF front-ends and to pass a combined RF signal to a down-conversion element, where the power distribution network includes a combination of active and passive components. Each RF front-end includes a phase shifter configured to delay the signal in accordance with the given direction and a variable amplifier configured to adjust the gain of the signal.

摘要: Methods and systems for phase shifting include a hybrid quadrature coupler having an input, an output, and two termination loads. Each termination load includes multiple terminations, each termination having a varactor; and one or more transmission lines separating the terminations. A control module is configured to determine a phase shift and gain to apply to the input and to independently control a capacitance of each varactor such that the output of the hybrid quadrature coupler is shifted by the determined phase shift relative to the input with the determined gain.

摘要: According to an aspect of the present principles, methods are provided for fabricating an integrated structure. A method includes forming a very large scale integration (VLSI) structure including a semiconductor layer at a top of the VLSI structure. The method further includes mounting the VLSI structure to a support structure. The method additionally includes removing at least a portion of the semiconductor layer from the VLSI structure. The method also includes attaching an upper layer to the top of the VLSI structure. The upper layer is primarily composed of a material that has at least one of a higher resistivity or a higher transparency than the semiconductor layer. The upper layer includes at least one hole for at least one of a photonic device or an electronic device. The method further includes releasing said VLSI structure from the support structure.

摘要: Transmit/receive switches and methods for radio control include connecting a first reactive impedance in parallel with a power amplifier on a transmit path during reception to neutralize a reactive impedance of the power amplifier and to prevent received signals from entering the transmit path. The first reactive impedance is disconnected during transmission.
