The articles in this special section illustrate the relevance of machine learning algorithms to microwave engineers and their CAD tools, as used in industry and academia.

With the tremendous growth of the semiconductor industry, compute power and memory have become cheap and accessible. One interesting outcome of this growth has been the adoption of machine learning (ML) in several fields traditionally dominated by physics and mathematics [1]-[9]. Solving electrically large systems by analyzing their electromagnetic (EM), thermal, and mechanical behavior can be a time-

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are information processing systems, with their design inspired by studies of the ability of the human brain to learn from observations and generalize by abstraction. Researchers have investigated a variety of important applications utilizing the ability of ANNs to perform the modeling and optimization of microwave components and circuits, such as high-speed very large-scale

Electronic computer-aided design (CAD), or electronic design automation (EDA), has achieved great importance in RF integrated circuit (RFIC) design in the past decade as semiconductor technology evolves to meet the needs of high-speed and high-reliability communication. Today, EDA tools are considered essential for a standard design flow. In many cases, the first-pass success of a modern RF design

The 16th High Efficiency Power Amplifier (HEPA) Student Design Competition (SDC), organized by the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society, was held virtually in collaboration with Keysight Microwave Laboratory for the live measurement. This contest focuses on the PAs that have both high efficiency and high linearity over a relatively broad bandwidth. The participants are required to design and

It all started with a spark. Let us rewind back to 1887, in Germany. The days were getting cooler in the garden of the Technische Hochschule in Karlsruhe as Heinrich Rudolf Hertz was setting up the first-ever far-field wireless power transmission with increasingly more power [1]. He was striving to demonstrate the wireless nature of electromagnetic waves and propagation. Moreover, as no high-frequency

3D-printed dielectric substrates are manufactured using additive manufacturing (AM) technology. With CAD/CAM, rapid, accurate, and automatic manufacturing of objects with different characteristics and almost any geometry is possible. With 3D printing processes, objects are formed layer by layer, and complicated shapes can easily be created. For this reason, in the last decade, AM has seen a great boom

In the recent past, we have experienced astonishing progress in mapping human body functionalities and interconnections, encouraging a holistic view of physiological processes and medical analysis. Similar advances are occurring in modeling and theoretically investigating the interaction between electromagnetic (EM) fields and living systems, opening more and more opportunities to turn bio-EM interactions

Microwave (MW) technologies are increasingly being employed in biomedicine and health care. Applications such as MW ablation (MWA), MW sensors for the realtime monitoring of physiological parameters, and lab-on-a-chip devices are just some of the examples in a wide variety of possibilities. Recently, highfrequency irreversible electroporation (H-FIRE) has been attracting more attention due to its important

Since the conception of radio astronomy [1], researchers have been striving to develop a "zero-noise" broadband receiver. Although this goal has remained elusive, the pursuit of it has led to numerous low-noise circuit innovations [2], [3]. Perhaps the most notable of these innovations are cryogenic low-noise amplifiers (cryo-LNAs) [3]-[6] as this technology has been able to achieve the lowest noise

Doherty power amplifiers (DPAs) [1] are widely used as basestation PAs in modern wireless communication systems and have been well-reviewed [2]. Due to its mechanism of load modulation, the DPA exhibits an additional efficiency peak at a certain output power back-off (OBO). This makes the DPA highly desirable for amplifying modulated signals with high peak-to-average power ratios (PAPRs). However,

The past two decades have witnessed an unprecedented growth in the study and implementation of different short-range wireless services. However, the deployment of multiple short-range communication techniques has led to an overpopulation of the radio spectrum. Ultrawide-band (UWB) technology aims to offer an alternative to this spectrum scarcity as it can coexist with other radio technologies [Bluetooth

Inductors are critical components in RF applications, such as filters, oscillators, and amplifiers. However, integrated spiral inductors on silicon (Si) have shown performance limitations. They do not meet the challenges of current trends toward miniaturized, low-cost, and on-chip multistandard communication systems [1]. While they have good performance in terms of noise, linearity, and power consumption

This focused issue is sponsored by the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) MTT-11 Technical Committee (TC) on Low-Noise Techniques. Each TC in the MTT-S is made up of international researchers with a variety of backgrounds and research interests. The low-noise TC changes on a regular basis and brings in researchers with new interests. Low-noise techniques cover everything from fundamental

The study of fluctuations in oscillators has been a classical research topic in mathematics, physics, and engineering since the first half of the 20th century [1]-[4]. Besides the intellectual fascination for mathematically difficult problems, the importance of the topic is deeply rooted in practical applications, mainly in the fields of RF and microwave electronics and also telecommunications. In

As the title suggests, I am inviting the reader to take a brief walk with me and discuss the interesting subject of microwave noise. My goal is to provide some highlights on this subject, from its basic pillars based on physics to the latest engineering publications. A solid understanding of noise cannot but stand on the shoulders of the physicists who have continually been looking at overcoming the

Noise is a random signal, a perturbation of dc bias and RF signals. It is usually necessary that digital electronics provide a low bit error rate or error vector magnitude to guarantee the reliable digital transmission of data. Microwave electronics are commonly expected to amplify or mix these digital signals with high linearity and without adding significant noise, which translates to the requirement
