ELectronics for G-band ARrays (ELGAR)
Abstract
The ELectronics for G-band ARrays (ELGAR) program is developing the integration technologies needed to create compact, high-performance G-band (220 GHz) array front-end electronics to enable phased array antenna systems for DoD communications and sensing. ELGAR will address the key technical challenges that prevent III-V electronics from realizing high-performance G-band arrays, namely achieving efficient, compact G-band III-V monolithic microwave/millimeter wave integrated circuit power amplifiers (MMIC PAs) with high output power density, and achieving low loss off-chip interconnects between adjacent G-band array components. In particular, ELGAR will develop III-V compatible, silicon-like fabrication and integration approaches to enable compact, high power density, high efficiency G-band MMICs and arrays. The technologies developed will support applications including high data rate communications in size, weight, and power-constrained platforms.
