On the Design of Low-Cost 60-GHz Radios for multigigabit-per-second transmission over short distances.

This article reviews, discusses, and proposes crucial 60-GHz radio design options. First, it discusses the choice of integrated circuit technology for the radio frequency (RF) part and presents the status quo concerning standardization. Then, it describes the 60-GHz channel-propagation characteristi...
