Research Engineer, Silicon Austria Labs GmbH (March 2023 - March 2024)

RE­SEARCH FOCUS

• RF and mmWave trans­ceiver front­ends with fully digital trans­mitter archi­tec­tures

• Design of RF inte­grated circuits like LNA’s, mixers and power ampli­fiers

• Sampling and subs­am­pling recei­vers

• Digi­tally assisted RF concepts like digital predis­tor­tion and self-inter­fe­rence cancel­la­tion

• Code­sign and co-opti­miza­tion of RFIC and RF frontend modules using hete­ro­ge­neous / hybrid inte­gra­tion tech­no­lo­gies like System-in-Package (SiP) or System-on-Module (SoM)

RE­SEARCH COMPE­TEN­CIES

• RF and mmWave inte­grated circuit design with modern CMOS (SOI, FinFet) or HBT tech­no­lo­gies

• Modern CAD and simu­la­tion hard­ware faci­li­ties are avail­able with access to IC tech­no­lo­gies via Euro­prac­tice produc­tion service

• Model­ling and design of RF passive compo­n­ents using 3D field solvers like HFSS or Momentum

• RF and mmWave PCB Design

• Lab charac­te­riza­tion of RF and mmWave frontend buil­ding blocks on PCB and on wafer level

• Deve­lop­ment of test solu­tions for trans­ceiver front­ends

APPLI­CA­TIONS

• Fully digital mmWave trans­mit­ters for 5G base station massive MIMO antenna arrays

• Effi­cient auxi­l­iary sensing recei­vers for digital pre-distor­tion (DPD) in phased arrays
