This is part 3 of the SERENA webinar series on results towards enabling technologies for future 5G mmWave base station systems. During this seminar “Multi-physical modelling for active antenna transmitter systems”, speakers from TU Berlin and Chalmers University of Technology, discuss how thermal, electric, and electromagnetic hardware effects will influence the performance of millimeter wave communication transmitters and communication systems. Both theoretical and experimental studies will be included to illustrate typical applications of the methods discussed. The following presentations are given: - Electro-thermal simulation for active antenna transmitters (Christian Fager, Chalmers)
The recorded webinar is now ready to watch.
This is part 2 of the SERENA webinar series on results towards enabling technologies for future 5G mmWave base station systems. This workshop on “GaN-on-Si for mm-wave applications” covers GaN-on-Si processes and design tools for mm-wave applications as well as GaN-on-Si substrates for RF and mm-wave applications. Another focus is on 60 nm GaN-on-Si based mm-wave amplifiers for RF sensing and wireless communication. The following presentations are given: - GaN-on-Si process and design tools for mm-wave front ends (Rémy Leblanc, OMMIC)

This is part 1 of the SERENA webinar series on results towards enabling technologies for future 5G mmWave base station systems. This workshop on "Heterogeneous Integration for High Performance mmWave Electronics” covers requirements and design aspects of the system and its semiconductor components with an emphasis on mmWave heterogeneous integration. Using results from SERENA the system aspects, as well as the RF and thermal design of components and packages was illustrated based on an em-bedding packaging technology. The following presentations are given: - 5G Requirements from a system perspective (Kristoffer Andersson, Ericsson)
The recorded webinar is now ready to watch.
