“Wireless” and “data exchange” are closely related concepts that are largely involved in our daily lives. None can even imagine life without wireless. However, this trend comes with an exponential growth of data consumption. As stated by the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association, with the second greatest number of 4G/LTE networks in the world and over 30 million subscribers, from which around 73% have smartphones, Canadian wireless market sector revenues are the largest component of total telecommunications revenues. Furthermore, “data consumption increased by 44% in 2014-2015, and mobile data traffic is expected to grow fivefold from 2016 to 2021.” To effectively address the above challenges, professional are privileging millimetre-wave (mm-wave) frequency bands, particularly through the imminent implementation of the 5th generation (5G), expected to begin in 2020. In fact, even if the specific technologies/standards that will be part of the 5G have yet to be finalized, there is a broad consensus that mm-wave bands will enable wider bandwidths and higher data rates. Yet, data exchange is not restricted to 5G technology and related smart-devices while referring to mm-wave wireless applications. In fact, a relatively new player is emerging in the mm-wave wireless market namely, the MilliMetre-wave IDentification (MMID), a counterpart of the well-known Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID). In fact, MMID systems have several unique characteristics such as light weight, small size, high accuracy, and fine resolution as well as the potential of encoding a larger number of data bits, making them ideal for efficient and secure tracking and identification. However, as highlighted in several technical papers, the above technologies raise critical issues related to performance. In fact, because of the operating frequency range (mm-waves), such features involve enhanced solutions in both circuit and antenna designs to address issues related to high propagation loss, expensive semiconductor and packaging technologies, lack of foundry models, unwanted radiation and coupling effects, lack of gain/power at higher frequencies, to name a few. To assure consistent design and meet the above technology standards and objectives, designers need to be provided with reliable computer-aided design (CAD) tools and improving system performance. The aim of the present proposal is to propose high-performing circuit designs, improve active device modeling/characterization and circuit analysis capabilities, quantify/minimize electromagnetic effects (multipath, parasitic coupling ), as well as enhance antenna array performance for next-generation mm-wave wireless systems.

“无线”和“数据交换”是我们日常生活中涉及的密切相关的概念。在全球和超过3000万个订户，大约73％的市场部门收入是2014年至2015年电信收入的最大组成部分。挑战性ivileging毫米波（mm波）频带，特别是通过第五代（5G）的即将开始的频段，预计将于2020年开始。最终的共识是，MM波频段将使更广泛的带宽和更高的数据速率。 MM波无线市场，即毫米波识别（MMID），这是众所周知的射频识别（RFID）的对应物，实际上，MMID系统具有GHT重量，例如GHT重量精细的分辨率以及编码大量数据位的潜力，非常适合有效跟踪和识别。在电路设计和天线设计中的增强解决方案都与高繁殖损失，包装技术，缺乏铸造型，不需要的辐射和耦合效应，高频率的增益/功率相关。上述技术标准和目标标志（CAD）工具和改进系统性能。一代MM波无线系统。
