Compared to gallium-arsenide (GaAs)-based technology, the new GaN HEMT-based amplifier chipset for the millimeter band is anticipated to offer output that is increased by approximately four-fold (4x), and a noise figure decreased by 40%, while transmission ranges are expected to be extended by roughly three-fold (3x).
Anyone who is interested in helping open the millimeter band for use in WPANs is invited to join the interest group.
As high-frequency waves known as the millimeter band have short wavelengths and are ideal for high-accuracy measurement of distances between two points, they are used in precision radar systems.
