The 60-GHz gigabit wireless personal area network (WPAN) is an attractive application for next-generation dual-mode broadband wireless network. The CMOS technologies enable the low-cost manufacturability and system-on-chip (SoC) integration for 60-GHz low-power mobile devices. This paper compares the RF performance of the reported 60-GHz CMOS transceivers, and also discusses the architecture design trade-offs between performances and dc power consumption.
