This paper introduces a miniaturized system in package (SIP) for a Ku-band four-channel RF transceiver front-end. The SIP adopts the packaging scheme of an inner heat-dissipation gasket and multi-layer substrate in the high temperature co-fired ceramics (HTCC) shell with a metal heat sink at the bottom. The gasket effectively solves the heat-dissipation problem of high-power transceiver chips, and the multi-layer substrate achieves the interconnection between multiple chips. Within the limited size of 14.0 × 14.0 × 2.5 mm, the SIP integrates five bidirectional amplifier chips, an amplitude-phase control multi-function chip, and two power modulation chips to realize the Ku-band four-channel RF transceiver front-end. Transmitting power over 0.5 W (27dBm) and receiving noise figure of 3.4 dB are achieved in the Ku-band. The efficient heat dissipation, high air tightness, and excellent integration are simultaneously realized in this SIP. The measurement results show that the performance is stable in the receiving and transmitting states, and the SIP based on HTCC technology has specific prospects for radar transceiver application.

Boasting superior flexibility in beam manipulation and a simpler framework than traditional phased arrays, terahertz metasurface-based phased arrays show great promise for 5G-A/6G communication networks. Compared with the reflective reconfigurable intelligent surface (reflective RIS), the transmissive RIS (TRIS) offers more feasibility for transceiver multiplexing systems to meet the growing demand for high-performance beam tracking in terahertz communication and radar systems. However, the terahertz TRIS encounters greater challenges in phase shift, beam efficiency, and complex circuitry.

Both types require the monostatic transceiver to overcome the technical challenge of self-interference (SI). To address this challenge, a photonics-assisted self-interference cancellation (SIC) scheme for an IBFD ISAC transceiver is proposed and experimentally demonstrated.

The influence of curvature of the three-dimensional target on QRCS is analyzed. By comparing and analyzing the bistatic multiphoton QRCS for a cylinder and a rectangular plate, we find that the QRCS for the convex surface target is the extension of the QRCS for the planar target with inhomogeneous atomic arrangement intervals and patterns.

A fully integrated 24-GHz radar transceiver with one transmitter (TX) and two receivers (RXs) for compact frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar applications is here presented. The FMCW synthesizer was realized using a fractional-N phase-locked loop (PLL) and programmable chirp generator, which are completely integrated in the proposed transceiver. The measured output phase noise of the synthesizer is -80 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset.
