There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Hua Wang, with Song Hu and Jong Seok ParkJong Seok Park and Song Hu were presented with IEEE International Solid State Circuit Conference (ISSCC) Analog Devices Inc. Outstanding Student Designer Awards at the 2014 IEEE ISSCC, held February 9-13 in San Francisco. This award recognizes outstanding, early stage Ph.D. students who are specializing in integrated circuit design.
Both Park and Hu are Ph.D. students in the Georgia Tech Electronics and Micro-System Lab, based in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). Their advisor is ECE Assistant Professor Hua Wang.
Park is developing novel design methodologies and implementation techniques to realize ultra-compact and low-loss passive networks for RF and mm-wave circuits in a standard CMOS process. These passive networks include filters, quadrature hybrids, power combiners/splitters, and beam-forming networks for phased-array systems with concurrent multi-beam operations.
Hu is creating advanced wireless transmitter technologies by leveraging digitally intensive circuit architectures. Compared to conventional RF transmitter architectures, these digital transmitter architectures are particularly conducive to System-on-Chip integration in a highly scaled CMOS process (28nm and below) to realize low-cost energy-efficient mobile wireless data links. These circuit architectures achieve enhanced transmitter performance in back-off energy efficiency, linearity, bandwidth, and reliability.
