MWIS 2013 - 2013 Symposium on: Millimeter Wave Imaging and Sensing

The emergence of low cost high performance CMOS technology has opened a new perspective in the development of millimeter wave (mmWave) systems. With availability of ultra-wide bandwidths, emerging millimeter wave technology has the potential to impact our lives with applications ranging from imaging, sensing, automotive radars, security, biology, short-range, and ultra-high speed wireless data transmission. For example, the wavelength of mmWave frequencies is small enough to achieve a useful resolution for many imaging applications. Their shorter wavelength allows for greatly reduced equipment and antenna size. There are certainly many opportunities and open problems in mmWave systems for researchers. The signal processing community is uniquely positioned to benefit from deeper understanding of mmWave circuits and systems. The objective of this symposium is to bring academic and industrial researchers from both mmWave silicon based circuit and signal processing communities together in an effort to identify and discuss the major technical challenges and recent results in millimeter wave systems. Researchers and practitioners working in this area are expected to take this opportunity to discuss and express their views on the current trends, challenges, and state of the art solutions addressing various issues in mmWave systems.
