DURIP MI3-Mixed-Signal Microwave Microelectronics for Intelligent Identification and Interception of Emitters

Abstract

The increasing demand for communications capacity in the defense sector in the 21st century is fueled by the transition of the defense tactics towards a more #knowledge-based# and #network-centric# structure. This is more aligned to the ever-growing digital landscape that is being bolstered by the revolutionary wireless technologies 4G, 5G, and the upcoming 6G which not only give increased data-rates but also simultaneously support large number of devices, i.e, increase connection density. This research proposal aims at developing a laboratory that could facilitate research in microelectronic radio-frequency (RF) circuits and systems for upcoming applications. The circuits and systems could be realized in existing CMOS technology or using novel devices that could be efficiently integrated with CMOS to realize communications and computing systems with low SwaP footprint to facilitate an agile defence force. Theproposed laboratory would have a three fold role of facilitating (i) research, (ii) teaching, and (iii) training. In the research front this proposal aims at developing (i) RF circuits and systems for energy efficient 5G and 6G communication, (ii) RF machine learning for RF Fingerprinting (RFF) and Specific Emitter Identification (SEI), and (iii) cryo-CMOS based ultra-sensitive wideband receivers. In the teaching/training front the proposal aims at training senior undergraduates and master#s students in the area of (i) RFsignal generation and measurement and (ii) cryo-CMOS device and circuit characterization and model generation.
