MixComm, the mmWave Antennas to Algorithms™ pioneer, announced a new award from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to fund the development of high-performance, silicon-based mmWave power amplifiers (PAs). With this program, MixComm would continue to develop transformative mmWave solutions for the 5G and satellite communications industries.
MixComm’s revolutionary technology is based upon research conducted at the Columbia high-Speed and Millimeter-wave IC (CoSMIC) Lab at Columbia University, which is led by Dr. Harish Krishnaswamy, MixComm co-founder and CTO. Dr. Krishnaswamy and Dr. Arun Natarajan, MixComm’s VP of RF Technology, have previously worked on numerous DARPA mmWave programs, including Efficient Linearized All-Silicon Transmitter ICs (ELASTx). This new award of $497k from DARPA will build on those efforts.
