ABSTRACT
The D-band (110–170 GHz) could offer unprecedented data rates to mobile devices thanks to the use of huge non-contiguous frequency bands. Indeed up to 32 GHz band can be aggregated, allowing > 100 Gbps wireless data rate, for many short- or medium-range applications. Moreover, the most advanced BiCMOS technology (B55x) is pushing forward its maximum operating frequencies (ft/fmax), bridging the gap between pure SiGe and III-V technologies.
