Millimeter-Wave Ultra-Wideband Six-Port Receiver Using Cross-Polarized Antennas

This paper presents a new low-cost millimeter-wave ultra-wideband (UWB) transceiver architecture operating over V-band from 60 to 64 GHz. Since the local oscillator (LO) power required in the operation of six-port receiver is generally low (compared to conventional one using diode mixers...
