A Transmitter/Receiver Link for High Data Rate Polymer Microwave Fiber Communication at Y-band
Paper in proceeding, 2024

A Y-band (170-260 GHz) ultra high data rate transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx), are designed and fabricated in a commercial 130 nm silicon germanium (SiGe) BiCMOS process. The link has demonstrated data rates up to 30 Gbps over a one meter polymer microwave fiber (PMF), using a carrier of 237 GHz. This is the first PMF link above 200 GHz reaching a distance of one meter.
