Abstract
A reflective, dual-loop, switching antenna utilizing near-field/far-field energy cancellation is integrated in a 90 GHz pulsed transmitter (TX). The TX features high ON/OFF ratio, good antenna efficiency and PRF up to 3.45GHz. It achieves TX power of 10dBm with 18dB of power tuning. The pulse width is tunable between 46ps to 310ps and initial bistatic measurements distinguish 4 reflectors across a 6cm region signifying progress towards the development of a diagnostic medical imager in silicon.
