TERA6G at the European Microwave Week 09/2024

TERA6G Project coordinator, Prof. Guillermo Carpintero, participates in Workshop WS08 at the European Microwave Week Event Date: Sept 22nd, 2024, 8:30 am CET

Programme

On Sunday, September 22nd Guillermo Carpintero, TERA6G Project coordinator will participate in the European Microwave Week (https://www.eumweek.com/) Workshop WS08 (Photonic Technologies for Radio Frequency Applications), chaired by Andreas Stöhr (Universität Duisburg-Essen) and Taro Eichler (Rohde & Schwarz) in Room 741A from 08:30 – 17:50, with a great line up of speakers to present the latest advances in the TERA6G Project (https://www.uc3m.es/research/TERA6G)

Today, most devices and technologies rely on electronics to process, transmit, and analyze information. This workshop will address photonic RF technologies aiming to transform these electronic connections into photonic ones, increasing transmission speeds and improving responsiveness while consuming substantially lower levels of power. The key advantage of photonic RF technology is the potential to provide a continuous and interference-free coverage of multi-octave frequency bands up to the THz regime with only a single technological solution paving the way for a plethora of future applications, measurement technologies and metrology. Potential applications include integrated wireless and wired networks, high-capacity fixed wireless access, satellite communications and the analysis of extremely broadband signals as well as the continuous measurement of semiconductor components over a frequency range of several octaves. Generic functions include multi-octave bandwidth RF sources and receivers, phase-stable transport of RF signals over optical fiber, optical beamforming technology and other applications. The workshop will provide an insight into the state-of-theart of photonic RF technologies, and it aims to discuss whether maturity, performance and cost of photonic RF technology is ready to compete with existing solutions.

The use of such transmission techniques will face several challenges, such as the presence of hardware impairments at both circuit and system level, like non-idealities in amplifiers, phase noise, IQ imbalances, and others. Possible solutions and state-of-the-art implementations will be disc
