Abstract

The emergence of Internet of Things (IoT) has brought forth new opportunities by seamlessly integrating the physical world using computing, sensing, and wireless networks, transforming it into a cyber-physical system. An essential building block enabling an IoT is a sensing system. The use of "near-field communication (NFC)" has gained attention in recent years, as it enables low-power short-range sensing and wireless transfer of low content information. The NFC, however, is inapplicable in scenarios where the real-time high-resolution image or video of the object(s) needs to be sensed. The penetration of THz waves through many materials, which are impervious for visible light makes THz imaging akin to X-rays, except that THz radiation is non-ionizing and therefore not harmful to the object being imaged, especially living tissues. This special issue paper presents an overview of recent advances in the development of siliconbased mm-wave/THz imaging sensors for near-field IoT applications.

Efficiency Enhancement of Reconfigurable SIW Antenna for Millimeter-Wave Applications
Abstract
In this letter, a reconfigurable single elemental Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) antenna is developed aimed at operating at 28 GHz as well as 38 GHz. The two PIN diodes used as switching elements shift the antenna resonance between 28 and 38 ...
Coupling Effects of Adjacent Inductors on the Transformer in the Millimeter-Wave Regime
ICCBN '21: Proceedings of the 2021 9th International Conference on Communications and Broadband Networking

Because of the compact layout of millimeter-wave (mm-wave) ICs, coupling effects of adjacent inductors will lead to poor performance on the transformer, such as changing inductances (), quality factor () and self-resonant frequency () of each coil, and ...
