This document collects the published silicon phased arrays from 2010 to present, focusing on arrays carrier frequencies from 10GHz to 700 GHz in commercially available technologies including bulk CMOS, CMOS SOI, FinFET, SiGe/SiGe BiCMOS. As phased arrays are becoming an essential technology for future wireless communication and sensing systems, the purpose of this document is to help the scientific community identify the technology trends, scaling, performance advance, and performance limits in phased arrays over carrier frequency, functionalities, complexity, and device technologies.
2024.01.17. This is the third public release (Version 3.0) that covers (phased) arrays from 10 GHz to 700 GHz in commercially available IC technologies. This Version 3.0 survey includes array designs built on PCBs/AiPs with multiple RFICs (such as large-scaled SATCOM arrays or 5G arrays), passive/active reflect arrays, and relay arrays. The dataset contains total 147 data points. Details on the array architecture on-chip as well as on-module with integration of IC and antennas are included. TX EIRP results, power consumptions, and array thermal density are added.
