Mobile infrastructure gets further developed
• Need for speed & low latency• More advanced networks• Lack of spectrum is driving new
technology (mm-wave)• Backhaul need increase• IoT and 5G is coming• Reduce cost need -> C-RAN
Confidential under NDA 4
Growth 2022: Mobile infrastructure LTE and 5G
• +2.7 billion LTE• +0.5 billion 5G
Confidential under NDA 5
How will mm-wave support this growth?
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the US open up for mm-wave
• 27.5-28.35GHz• 37-38.6GHz• 38.6-40GHz• 57-71GHz (14 GHz)• 71-76 and 81-86 GHz (10 GHz)
USA market = first moverEarly markets Japan, China and Korea

Wi-Fi and Cellular evolution
802.11ad, 802.11ay and 5G
key RF features • mm-wave• Beam steering/
Beam forming• Phased array
antennas
Confidential under NDA 7
Why beam steering/forming
Confidential under NDA 8
• mm-wave has higher free space path loss• Compensated by using phased array and BF• Phased array and BF increased gain• BF increase directivity (even NLOS) • BF reduces interference and crosstalk
Omni-directional
Phased array with BF
Technology choice for RF mm-wave applications
Technology + - Comments
RF CMOS(65-28 nm)
• Mainstream CMOS• Low wafer cost/mm2 • SOC integration with RF+BB• 65nm = lowest wafer cost• 28nm = highest integration
• Low breakdown voltage• Low Tx power / efficiency at
mmWave• Poor Device isolation• mmWave performance
decreases at 28nm• High mask cost
• Good choice for consumer electronics -> short rangeapplications
• RF TRX integration is difficult at mmWave
• Okay for 60 GHz (V-band, not suitable > 70 GHz.
SiGe BiCMOS(130nm)
• Optimized for mmWave• Great f-T / f-Max and phase noise• Good Tx output power and
efficiency per element• Lower mask cost• Great integration level for mixed
and digital signals
• Higher wafer cost/mm2• Not suitable to baseband SoC –
However single SMD eWLB-capsule integration possible if desired.
• Great choice for high performance and high Txpower (longer range)mmWave applications
• Support fMax of 300 Ghz -> application from 60-120 Ghz. (V-band, E-band, W-Band etc)
GaAs • Good for mmWave• Best Tx output power and
efficiency per element• Lower mask cost
• Very high wafer cost/mm2• Not suitable to baseband SoC• No digital integration possible • Low integration level
• Best choice for high performance and high Txpower (longer range)
• Expensive and has very low integration level
Sivers IMA choice SiGe => Best technology for mmWave infrastructure products

Macro cell Backhaul Point to Point
• 28, 60-80 GHz backhaul solutions• Cheaper than fiber (low cost and fast installation)• Traditional point to point or 802.11ad/ay
2 GHz bandwidth, 256 QAM and up to 10 Gbps

C-RAN Fronthaul Point to Point
Confidential under NDA 14
• 60-80 GHz fronthaul solutions• Cheaper than fiber (low cost and fast installation)• Low latency • Traditional point to point or 802.11ad/ay• Beam steering and beam forming will be key
0.5-2 GHz bandwidth, up to 10 Gbps
Mesh network - Point to Multipoint
28 GHz, 39, 60GHz solution (WiGig/802.11ad) with: • Easy installation: beam steering and beam forming
3 sectors are needed to cover the full 270° degrees

Fixed Wireless broadband access
28 GHz (5G), 39 GHz (5G) or 60GHz (WiGig/802.11ad)
• Easy installation: beam steering and beam forming• Large bandwidth and speed > 1 Gbps• Cheaper than fiber (low cost and fast installation)
Confidential under NDA 16
Google Fiber -> FWA
Outdoor and Indoor: Carrier grade Wi-Fi access point at 60 GHz
• High output power to cover large cell• 60 GHz give high free space path loss –> requires beam steering and beam forming• Support for tri-band required
4 sectors are needed to cover the full 360° azimuth
Confidential under NDA 17
Indoor: High-end Tri-band Wi-Fi access point
Confidential under NDA 18
• High output power to cover longer distance in rooms• 60 GHz give high free space path loss –> requires beam steering and beam forming• Sivers IMA solution only for high-end access points due to cost• Support for tri-band required
5G cellular access
• 28, 39, 60-80 GHz “5G” with phased array and beam steering
Backhaul and end-user access in one box!
