Research

 The Advanced RF Systems Lab (ARFSL) develops high-frequency integrated circuits and systems at RF, microwave, mm-wave, and up to terahertz frequency bands. The typical applications are high-speed wireless communications, high-resolution radars and imaging systems, but more emerging areas such as wireless energy transfer and health care are also envisioned. In particular, the tremendously wide bandwidth available at the mm-wave and terahertz spectrum opens up unprecedented opportunities for various next-generation wireless applications. Our research goal is to make a creative breakthroughs in the integrated solution for such promising and challenging frequency spectrum.
