Abstract
5G connectivity is the next technological revolution. This pervasive, ultrafast compute network will connect billions of devices with data on-demand. It will drive economic expansion in many sectors, spawn new products and services, and transform our lives as we know it. Yet, before 5G can deliver on its promises and quality of service (QoS) metrics, wireless systems designers and engineers must overcome sizable challenges. Â
Ansys 5G simulation solutions empower these individuals to solve the complexities impeding device, network and data center design. Ansys 5G simulation solutions provide electromagnetics, semiconductor, electronics cooling and mechanical analysis tools to accurately simulate 5G radio and related technologies. The multi-solution platform leverages high-performance computing that can be deployed across the enterprise, allowing designers and engineering experts to collaborate more effectively.Â
This seminar will highlight the following 5G engineering challenges:Â
·  End User Equipment Â
  o  multi-frequency band antenna integrationÂ
  o   modeling of mm-wave array antennas Â
  o   RFI, EMI & Desense MitigationÂ
·  Base-Station Antenna ModelingÂ
  o  Full Communication Analysis in Electrically Large & Complex EnvironmentÂ
  o  RFI, Data Coverage & ElectroThermal ReliabilityÂ
Speaker Bio
Dr. Laila Salman received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in electronics and communication engineering from Cairo University, Egypt, and the PhD. Degree in electromagnetic and antenna design from the University of Mississippi. She also worked as a post-doctoral student at the Université de Quebec en Outaouais, Gatineau, Canada till 2010. Her research was on dielectric resonator antennas, wearable antennas, microwave and millimeter-wave circuits and systems, microwave imaging for early detection of breast cancer and scattering from left-handed metamaterials.

Title: Characterization and Modeling of GaN HEMT Trapping Effects for Microwave Circuit Design
Date: September 2nd, 2020
Time: 11 AM (ET)
Register at: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/238482
This talk will review some recent advancements achieved on the characterization and modelling of the trapping effects felt in GaN HEMT transistors, and their impact on microwave circuit design. Because of their nowadays importance, a particular attention will be payed to applications on high power amplifiers for mobile wireless infrastructure and pulsed radar applications.
For that, the talk will start by recollecting the most common model formulations adopted for the various levels of RF engineering, from the device level (physics) to the transistor (circuit) and amplifier (system) level. Starting by the Shockley-Read-Hall capture and emission processes we will be able to understand one of the fundamental signatures of trapping effects, the significantly different charge and discharging time constants, and its impact on power amplifier nonlinear distortion behavior. Then, some widely adopted approaches of the channel current transients’ characterization are addressed and the talk concludes by presenting some illustrative cases of application to RF high power amplifiers.
