In such a context, the 60 GHz band, due to the several GHz of unlicensedbandwidth worldwide, is a promising option to serve the ever-increasing demandsof local and personal area networks for higher data rates and higher spatial reuse.This dissertation’s subject is the scientific investigation of new concepts for short-range radio transceivers that work with carrier frequencies of 60 GHz and bandwidthbetween 1 and 10 GHz. For a given amount of processing energy per information bit, the overall powerconsumption increases with the data rate. When targeting data rates beyond 100Gb/s, the system’s overall power consumption soon exceeds the power which can bedissipated without forced cooling. In order to achieve a maximum data rate underthis power constraint, the processing energy per information bit must be minimized. Therefore, in this dissertation, a novel processing efficient transmission scheme, i.e., using joint analog/digital signal processing architectures, is proposed. As a pre-requisite, the wireless channel characteristics at 60 GHz are well studied, and the im-plementation of a 60 GHz channel model for system simulations is done. The majorbaseband signal processing tasks such as beamforming/MIMO techniques, channelestimation, equalization, matched filtering (pulse shaping at the transmitter) are in-vestigated. Each of the transceiver tasks is studied both concerning the high-levelpower consumption and the communication performance impact. Except that, thelow complexity algorithms with acceptable performance loss are investigated to guar-antee the strict power limit. The overall methodology is energy-driven. For instance, all design decisions liketransmission scheme selection, analog/digital partitioning, and algorithms optimiza-tion, are driven by energy efficiency. There is a strong relationship between energyefficiency and communication performance. Thus, power estimation is performed forthe components identified to be suitable for a system that meets the overall through-put, communication performance, and power constraints. This applies to compon-ents in both the analog as well as the digital part. Besides, an analysis of the relation3between energy and spectrum efficiency is also performed to guide the practical en-ergy/spectrum efficiency trade-off for the millimeter-wave system design.Finally, as proof of concept for the methodology and because of its high relevance,the proposed approach is applied towards systems operating beyond the 100 GHz car-rier frequency range. The impact of an extension to 120 GHz carrier frequency rangesand an extension from the point-to-point MIMO transmission to multi-user case areaddressed. In this dissertation, all novel designs and analytical evaluations in systemdesign aspects are validated via simulations. The results demonstrate the perform-ance advantage of millimeter wave systems, which positions 60GHz technology as acritical component in the forefront of Gbps wireless communications.}, cin = {611810}, ddc = {621.3}, cid = {$I:(DE-82)611810_20140620$}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)11}, doi = {10.18154/RWTH-2022-04126}, url = {https://publications.rwth-aachen.de/record/844695}, }
