4-D Gesture Sensing Using Virtual Array Based on 60 GHz FMCW Radar Sensor |
A 4-D gesture sensing technique using reconfigurable virtual array method with a 60-GHz FMCW radar is presented. The proposed technique can be used for gesture sensing for both macro gestures such as handwriting letters and numbers, hand drawing different patterns in space and micro gestures such as the fingers' actions of virtual slider, finger tap, and finger wave. |

Inductive Power Transfer System for Powering Wireless Sensor Nodes in Structural Health Monitoring Applications |
This paper demonstrates a multicoil inductive power repeater system for structural health monitoring of steel-reinforced concrete structures. The coil not only performs as a power relay but also supplies energy to the local load. Experimental results show that this method can simultaneously provide equal power of 0.6 W to four local loads with a variation of less than 7.2%. The system achieves a long distance of 51.5 cm and an efficiency of 47.7%. |

Wideband Circulator Leakage Canceler for Retro-Directive RF System |
A wideband circulator leakage canceler IC using a negative capacitance is presented. It enhances a conventional circulator with a wider bandwidth and high isolation for a full-duplex retro-directive short-range wireless power transfer application. The measurement of the proposed circuit shows an avg. cancelation of 19 dB from 2.31 to 2.535 GHz. |

An Efficient, Broadband SiGe HBT Non-Uniform Distributed Power Amplifier |
An efficient, broadband SiGe HBT cascode non-uniform distributed power amplifier (NDPA), fabricated in 0.13-μm SiGe HBT BiCMOS technology, is presented for low-cost, fully integrated Si-based phased arrays. The proposed SiGe HBT NDPA achieves peak Pout of 21.5 dBm and PAE of 12.5-22.0% from 1.5 to 24.0 GHz. Under HL mode, the NDPA delivers 13.0-dBm average Pout with a PAE of 10.0% at 6-Gbit/s data rate 64 QAM modulation. |

Wideband Microstrip to 3D Printed Air Filled Waveguide Transition |
A wideband microstrip to additively fabricated waveguide transition is presented. The proposed design uses 3D printing to realize a highly integrated probe-based transition from the microstrip line on a PCB to an air-filled waveguide. Impedance matching better than 9.5 dB and in-band insertion loss per transition below 1.1 dB was achieved from 8 GHz to 14.5 GHz. |
