Descrizione del progetto
Aprire la strada ai dati ultraveloci
Le bande ad alta frequenza come mmWave e THz promettono un trasferimento dati superveloce, ma devono affrontare problemi come la perdita di segnale e la difficile produzione. Queste sfide rallentano i progressi della comunicazione wireless. Grazie al sostegno del programma di azioni Marie Skłodowska-Curie, il progetto MITCOM si propone di affrontare questa sfida. In particolare, prevede la progettazione di filtri e multiplatori a bassa perdita e alta tolleranza. Le sue innovative linee di trasmissione planari SSPP promettono facilità di produzione e integrazione. Facendo leva su questi progressi, il MITCOM si propone di aumentare l’efficienza delle tecnologie di comunicazione 5G/6G, aprendo la strada a prodotti economicamente vantaggiosi e alla crescita del settore. Di conseguenza, le società di telecomunicazioni potrebbero registrare un aumento dei profitti grazie al miglioramento delle prestazioni della rete e alla riduzione dei costi delle apparecchiature.
Obiettivo
The millimeter-wave (mmWave) and THz frequency bands hold immense potential for enabling ultra-fast data transmission and unlocking unprecedented bandwidth capabilities, but the RF components and circuits at these high frequencies suffer from relatively-large insertion losses and manufacturing difficulty/inaccuracy. Therefore, this entails researching into a fully-new type of transmission lines able to mitigate the high insertion losses and alleviate fabrication-tolerance issues of RF components. This MITCOM project aims to explore and develop new spoof surface plasmon polariton (SSPP) transmission lines for the design of mmWave and THz components with low insertion losses and their applications in next-generation wireless communications. Specifically, the overarching aim is to obtain SSPP-based mmWave and THz bandpass filters and multiplexers with low losses, low interference, high fabrication tolerance, ease of manufacturing and integration. Firstly, a new type of planar half-spaced SSPP transmission lines for waveguide and on-chip application scenarios will be proposed, and their design methodology will be developed to balance loss, ease of manufacturing and crosstalk issues, serving for E-plane waveguide and on-chip filter design. Then, the strategy for different filter specifications and tolerance levels will be analyzed in the steps of modeling and implementation through particular manufacturing technologies. Based on the design methodology and strategy, a series of E-plane waveguide and on-chip filters will be manufactured for validation and industry applications. Finally, based on the newly-conceived planar half-spaced SSPPs, diplexers and triplexers will be also designed, characterized and fabricated. The outcomes of the MITCOM project will contribute to the realization of cost-effective mmWave/THz filter and multiplexer products that potentially increase company profits and propel growth of the 5G/6G communication technology.
