RF MEMS Circuit Design for Wireless
Communications


Dates of Course/Location:
_1 October, 2007 in Irvine, CA 


Total Fee: $US495

Course Summary: Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology is on the verge of revolutionizing RF and Microwave wireless applications. As the requirements of present day and future wireless systems for lower weight, volume, power consumption and cost with increased functionality, frequency of operation and component integration become more and more demanding, the potentialities of the RF MEMS arsenal to meet these requirements, by enabling new wireless components and system architectures, are becoming ever more attractive. In this course we address the key practical aspects on which one must be well versed to succeed in exploiting this technology as well as its salient emerging applications.

Who Should Attend: Students, engineers, designers, manufacturers, marketing and business development managers, and executives currently involved in the study, development, or manufacturing of wireless systems for both commercial and defense markets.

Course Objectives: This course aims at getting interested parties informed on:
•    Motivation for applying RF MEMS in Wireless Systems
•    The elements of RF Circuit Design
•    The nature of Circuit Elements Enabled by RF MEMS and Their Applications
•    Case Studies on the Application of RF MEMS Devices in Circuit Design for Wireless Systems
