Switch-Mode Analog Integrated Circuits for beyond-5G Radio Transceivers (SMASH)

SMASH (abbreviation of Switch-Mode Analog Integrated Circuits for beyond-5G Radio Transceivers) is an ambitious project with an aim to perform groundbreaking scientific research, bringing a paradigm-shift to the analog circuit design methodology by representing analog information with time-based parameters of pulse waveform and processing it with switch components. The project will demonstrate the results through applied research that significantly advances the performance of radio receivers, thereby enabling low-cost fixed wireless broadband coverage in rural areas with speeds up to 100 Gbps, 10X the state-of-the-art cable technology.
