报告摘要
Given that there is a fundamental limit (approximate 60Mbps) that can be absorbed by the human brain, one key implication is that, as wireless access approaches the capacity of humans to absorb information, wireless will become increasingly equivalent to wired access. To make this become reality, two enablers are novel communication algorithms and integrated radio electronics. This talk focuses on the latter, showing that integrated radio electronics features integration of inductors, transmission lines, transformers, and even antennas in addition to transistors, capacitors, and resistors. As the mainstream electronics technology scales, transistors can operate at millimeter-wave (MMW) or THz bands, integrated radio will become more feasible as passive component size at such a high frequency is so small and integratable. So think about what can we do with a few billion 800-GHz transistors? Can we build 1000’s of radios on < 1 cm2 IC area operating at 100-500 GHz? If we can, the potential applications are extremely high speed MMW MIMO or THz Wireless Chip Area Network.

Yueping Zhang (M’03-SM’07-F’10)received the B.E. and M.E. degrees from Taiyuan University of Technology, Shanxi, China, in 1982 and 1987, respectively and the Ph.D. degree from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, in 1995, all in electronic engineering.
From 1982 to 1984, he worked at Shanxi Electronic Industry Bureau, from 1990 to 1992, the University of Liverpool, U. K., and from 1996 to 1997, City University of Hong Kong. From 1997 to 1998, he taught at the University of Hong Kong. He is now Professor of Electronic Engineering with the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He has researched extensively in the field of radio science and technology. He has published numerous papers and taken various US patents.
Dr. Zhang was a Guest Editor of the International Journal of RF and Microwave Computer-Aided Engineering, an Associate Editor of the International Journal of MicrowaveScience and Technology, and an Associate Editor of the International Journal of Electromagnetic Waves and Applications. He serves as an Editor of ETRI Journal and an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Antenna and Propagation. He also serves on the Editorial Boards of a large number of Journals including the IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques and ZTE Communications.
He was the recipient of the Sino-British Technical Collaboration Award (1990) for his contribution to the advancement of subsurface radio science and technology, the Best Paper Award of the 2nd IEEE/IET International Symposium on Communication Systems, Networks and Digital Signal Processing, Bournemouth, U.K. (July 18–20, 2000), and the Best Paper Prize of the 3rd IEEE International Workshop on Antenna Technology, Cambridge, U.K. (March 21–23, 2007). He was also the recipient of a William Mong Visiting Fellowship of the University of Hong Kong (2005) and the S. A. Schelkunoff Transactions Prize Paper Award of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (2012). He was the Chair, leading the IEEE Singapore MTT/AP Joint Chapter to win the Best Chapter Award of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (2013). He was the past Chair, guiding the IEEE Singapore MTT/AP Joint Chapter to win the Outstanding Chapter Award of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (2014).
