Calibration and Characterization of High-Speed Data Converter and Clock Generator

Abstract

To demonstrate effective calibration and characterization techniques for wideband data converter and mm-Wave building blocks, expecially related to Silicon-based Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM) effort that has been sponsored by the ONR. Objective To demonstrate effective calibration and characterization techniques for wideband data converter and mm-Wave building blocks, expecially related to Silicon-based Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM) effort that has been sponsored by the ONR. Approach 1. Calibration and characterization of wideband analog to digital converter. 2. Characterization of mm-Wave clock generators. 3. Demonstration of millimeter-wave high data-rate integrated transceivers. Overall Merit and ONR Mission Relevance This effort addresses the ONR Strategic Plan under the Naval S&T Focus Area of Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare and the Objective Category of Electronic Warfare. It addresses ONR s stated goal of enabling the warfighter to have complete control of the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) to ensure that naval forces can utilize it as required, deny the adversary the ability to use the spectrum except as we allow it, and assure that our sensors and electronic attack systems operate across the full span of the EMS.
