This is done by properly partitioning the system, generating libraries of passive devices which are electromagnetically simulated prior to any circuit optimization, generating performance tradeoffs at different hierarchical levels with multiobjective optimization algorithms and hierarchically composing lower level sub-blocks. With this proposed solution, an entire mm-Wave system, from the passive component level up to the system level, has been designed and compared with the results obtained from a conventional design approach, demonstrating the outstanding capabilities of the methodology.application/pdf11 p.engAdvanced driver assistance system (ADAS)Circuit synthesisMillimeter-wave (mm-Wave) circuitsTransformersinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.1109/TCAD.2020.2983363
