Abstract
New markets are emerging based on exciting new application domains such as the internet-of-things, self-driving vehicles, virtual/augmented reality, medical imaging, cubesats etc. These applications all entail a massively dense web of interconnected devices that rely on fast, robust and secure wireless connectivity. In turn, this motivates the need for a new generation of energy-efficient hardware that must support advanced wireless algorithms such as multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) signaling, millimeter-wave operation, full-duplex communication etc., as well as in situmachine learning algorithms, mixed-domain signal processing algorithms and hardware-level security features.
In this talk, Dr. Paramesh will describe his group’s broad research accomplishments spanning circuits/architectures, algorithm-circuit co-design and circuit-device co-design with novel “more-than-Moore” technologies, all of which are aimed at addressing the aforementioned challenges. He will describe advanced IC design techniques and algorithm-circuit co-design for millimeter-wave MIMO transceivers and constituent sub-systems such as digital frequency synthesizers and equalizers. He will also describe the pioneering collaborative research on the reconfiguration of RF integrated circuits using “phase-change” switches. Finally, he will describe his future plans for research and education.
