Introduction to the event
Advancements in W-band SIL and SRO radar systems leveraging GaAs MMIC technology demonstrate significant improvements in sensitivity and system efficiency, making them well-suited for vital sign monitoring applications. SIL radars achieve high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) without the need for a low-noise amplifier (LNA), while SRO radars offer superior sensitivity with lower power consumption and reduced system complexity. Both architectures emerge as promising candidates for next-generation healthcare monitoring systems. These innovations underscore the potential of mm-wave radar technology in enabling high-precision healthcare applications.
