DESCRIPTION:Advances in Si-based millimeter-wave circuit design\, Si-based 
 phased arrays\, and low-cost antenna integration techniques have enabled t
 he development of scalable phased arrays supporting 10s to 100s of element
 s. Si-based scalable phased arrays now operate from 28-GHz to 100-GHz freq
 uency range. Fabricated scalable phased array modules with multiple ICs ca
 n have up to 64 dual-polarized antenna elements. The general scaling appro
 ach relies on the commonly adopted schemes. Commercial applications of mil
 limeter-wave technology such as 5G\, backhaul\, and automotive sensor syst
 ems will provide further demand for scalable phased arrays in years to fol
 low. Open problems and opportunities remain to improve phased array perfor
 mance\, robustness\, and cost. Key areas of potential research in this are
 a include (1) development of new millimeter-wave package and antenna imple
 mentation and assembly techniques for improved yield and manufacturability
 \, (2) co-integration of Si and III-V based ICs at the module level\, (3) 
 development of module-level design for testability techniques\, and (4) fu
 rther development of digital design and RF-digital co-design approaches to
  enable adaptability and agility.\n\nThis talk discusses the need for scal
 able phased arrays and outlines key challenges for their implementation. D
 esign trade-offs are discussed for important aspects such as beamforming a
 rchitecture\, module-level realization with antennas and packaging\, and d
 igital control. Two recently introduced scaled 64-element dual polarized p
 hased array designs from our group are reviewed as implementation examples
 . (1) A phased array operating at 28-GHz supporting 5G base station applic
 ations\, and (2) TX and RX phased arrays operating at 94-GHz suitable for 
 backhaul and imaging applications. An outlook for future opportunities wit

X-ALT-DESC:Description: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Advances in Si-based millimeter-wave circu
 it design\, Si-based phased arrays\, and low-cost antenna integration tech
 niques have enabled the development of scalable phased arrays supporting 1
 0s to 100s of elements. Si-based scalable phased arrays now operate from 2
 8-GHz to 100-GHz frequency range. Fabricated scalable phased array modules
  with multiple ICs can have up to 64 dual-polarized antenna elements. The 
 general scaling approach relies on the commonly adopted schemes. Commercia
 l applications of millimeter-wave technology such as 5G\, backhaul\, and a
 utomotive sensor systems will provide further demand for scalable phased a
 rrays in years to follow. Open problems and opportunities remain to improv
 e phased array performance\, robustness\, and cost. Key areas of potential
  research in this area include (1) development of new millimeter-wave pack
 age and antenna implementation and assembly techniques for improved yield 
 and manufacturability\, (2) co-integration of Si and III-V based ICs at th
 e module level\, (3) development of module-level design for testability te
 chniques\, and (4) further development of digital design and RF-digital co
 -design approaches to enable adaptability and agility.&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;This talk d
 iscusses the need for scalable phased arrays and outlines key challenges f
 or their implementation. Design trade-offs are discussed for important asp
 ects such as beamforming architecture\, module-level realization with ante
 nnas and packaging\, and digital control. Two recently introduced scaled 6
 4-element dual polarized phased array designs from our group are reviewed 
 as implementation examples. (1) A phased array operating at 28-GHz support
 ing 5G base station applications\, and (2) TX and RX phased arrays operati
