The LNA takes advantage of common base (CB) topology for each stage and has 12 dB gain at 245 GHz, while exhibiting a 3 dB bandwidth of 26 GHz. It has a supply voltage of 2V and power dissipation of 28 mW. The transconductance mixer has -7 dB conversion gain at 245 GHz with an LO power of 8 dBm at 61 GHz. The mixer draws 9.8 mA at 3V. Simulation results of the receiver comprising the CB LNA and SHM mixer are given.}},

  abstract     = {{In this publication an integrated reflectometer in SiGe BiCMOS technology for sensor readout at 62 GHz is presented. The circuit includes an oscillator, a six-port reflectometer, and a dummy sensor for verification purposes. The circuit has a bandwidth of 8GHz at a center frequency of 62 GHz. It operates at 3.75V supply voltage and consumes 282 mW. The measurement principle is demonstrated and the scattering parameters of the dummy sensor are compared to measurement of a breakout circuit with a commercially available vector network analyzer. The circuit has been fabricated in a 190-GHz SiGe:C BiCMOS technology and occupies an area of 0.9 mm 2 .}},
