Speaker Information

Dr. Gordon GC Liang

Pivotone Communication Technology Co.

Abstract

In this talk, Dr. Liang will give an overview of different types of RF and microwave devices components and subsystems, and conduct system analyses from components and subsystem point of view, from which the new trend for the RF/microwave components for the wireless communication industry will be deducted. The scopes of the considerations in the talk include: 1) different frequency ranges (200 MHz to 200 GHz); 2) different materials (metallic, ceramic, plastics, LTCC etc.); 3) different applications (wireless, satellite, autonomous driving); 4) different control methods (tunable filters); 5) different environment; 6) different power levels; 7) different communication protocols; and 8) different manufacturing processes.
