Abstract
On October 24th, 2022 at 12.00 pm Prof. Grigorios Kalivas from the University of Patras will hold a seminar on "Millimeter-wave Transceivers for Phased-array applications" in DEIB Alpha Room.
Spectrum shortage and increasing demands for multi-Gb/s transmission rates combined with the advent of phased-arrays offering high capacity wireless links, turned the attention of design houses and the research community to designing and implementing phased array transceivers on silicon. R&D for the design and development of 28 GHz silicon technology phased array transceivers experiences a peak in recent years. However, the demand for higher bandwidths aiming at link delivering 50- 100Gb/s rates pushes the electronics industry and academia to explore transceiver design at higher frequencies (90- 140 GHz). System aspects as well as front-end circuit design considerations will be presented targeting multi-Gb/s transmission in Point –to-Point and Point-to-Multipoint transmission systems.

Short Bio
Grigorios Kalivas received the Diploma in Electrical Engineering from the University of Patras and the Masters and PhD degrees (both in Electronics Engineering) from Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada.
He worked for 3 years as research fellow in the Department of Systems and Computer Engineering at Carleton University where he was responsible for the design and development of broadband transceivers for millimeter –wave frequencies (30- 60 GHz).
Since 1994 he is a faculty member in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Patras where he is now a Professor of Electronic circuits and systems. In the last years his research focuses on circuit and system design for 5G, Point-to-Point and Ultra-wideband applications. This research is mostly funded by Greek Research Institutions and the Greek semiconductor industry. Dr. Kalivas is the author of the book “Digital Radio System Design” by J. Wiley.
