In this paper, a CMOS multichannel transceiver (TRX) is proposed for angular identification in automotive car radar applications. Two transmitters (TXs) and six receivers (RXs) are placed on the same die using 65-nm CMOS technology with chip size 3.5 × 3 mm 2 . To generate a millimeter-wave (MMW) fr...
