Abstract

A cost-effective receiver-module with built-in patch antenna was completed as well as a transmitter.Both the transmitter and the receiver have the local-oscillator in each package and have no terminal for the mm-wave signal.The linear-gain and the noise-figure of the receiver without the antenna were 35 dB and 5.5 dB, respectively.The measured phase-noise of the receiver were -60 dBc/Hz at 1kHz,-78 dBc/Hz at 10kHz,and -88.5 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz off-carrier frequency.The average in the local-oscillation frequency variation on the temperature was 0.2 ppm/C ° The transmission system using the transmitter and the receiver with 23 dBi horn antenna exhibited the error-free high-speed datatransmission per-formance within 9 m in the door QPSK 100 Mbps wireless LAN.
