Wireless equipment is now part of our daily life: cellular phones and pagers, cordless computer peripherals, security systems, positioning systems for cars and airplanes, remote devices, and many others. In fact, no one could imagine life without wireless broadband communication systems. Issues like performance, power consumption, or packaging, are of major importance for designers, while parameters like cost and accessibility to additional services such as text messaging, email, Internet, photo and video camera etc., are crucial for potential customers. Integrating so many different aspects in a single system leads to multi-task design with simultaneous consideration of technical and reliability criteria. As such, developing next-generation Microwave/Millimetre-wave Wireless systems is an imperative target to help high-tech Canadian companies maintaining their leadership in this strategic area of information technology. The ever-increasing demand on wireless equipment requires more advanced research to further improve interoperability and enhance performance in terms of higher frequency of operation, smaller size, lower cost, lower consumption, lower noise, higher linearity, etc. However, the above objectives cannot be reached without providing designers with reliable computer-aided design (CAD) tools (in modeling, analysis and optimization) and improving existing circuit performance. The present proposal is aimed to extend research and developmental activities on next generation wireless communication systems by proposing high-performing circuits, improving device modeling/characterization and circuit analysis capabilities, quantifying/minimizing electromagnetic (EM) affects (multipath, parasitic coupling ...), and designing small printed antennas. It will also give the opportunity to extent collaboration between academia, industry, and research agencies.

无线设备现在已成为我们日常生活的一部分：蜂窝电话和呼射，无绳电脑外围设备，安全系统，用于汽车和飞机的定位系统，远程设备以及许多其他设备。实际上，没有人可以想象没有无线宽带通信系统的生活。 性能，功耗或包装等问题对于设计师而言至关重要，而诸如文本消息，电子邮件，互联网，照片和摄像机等其他服务的成本和可访问性也对潜在客户至关重要。在单个系统中集成了许多不同的方面，可以同时考虑技术和可靠性标准，从而实现多任务设计。 因此，开发下一代微波/毫米波无线系统是帮助高科技加拿大公司在这一战略性信息技术领域中保持领导地位的必要目标。 对无线设备的不断增长的需求需要更高级的研究，以进一步提高互操作性并在较高的操作频率，较小的尺寸，较小的成本，较低的成本，较低的消耗，较低的噪音，较高的线性等方面提高性能。但是，上述目标不能可以在不为设计师提供可靠的计算机辅助设计（CAD）工具（在建模，分析和优化中）并改善现有电路性能的情况下到达。 本提案的目的是通过提出高性能电路，改善设备建模/表征和电路分析能力，量化/最小化电磁（EM）影响（多路径，寄生耦合... ），并设计小印刷天线。它还将为学术界，工业和研究机构之间的合作提供机会。
