• Abstract: As fifth-generation (5G) and upcoming sixth-generation (6G) communications exhibit tremendous demands in providing high data throughput with a relatively low latency, millimeter-wave (mmWave) technologies manifest themselves as the key enabling components to achieve the envisioned performance and tasks. In this context, mmWave integrated circuits (IC) have attracted significant research interests over the past few decades, ranging from individual block design to complex system design. However, the highly nonlinear properties and intricate trade-offs involved render the design of analog or RF circuits a complicated process. The rapid evolution of fabrication technology also results in an increasingly long time allocated in the design process due to more stringent requirements. In this thesis, 28-GHz transceiver circuits are first investigated with detailed schematics and associated performance metrics. In this case, two target systems comprising heterogeneous individual blocks are selected and demonstrated on both the transmitter and receiver sides. Subsequently, some conventional and large-scale machine learning (ML) approaches are integrated into the design pipeline of the chosen systems to predict circuit parameters based on desired specifications, thereby circumventing the typical time-consuming iterations found in traditional methods. Finally, some potential research directions are discussed from the perspectives of circuit design and ML algorithms.

  The stringent performance requirements of future wireless networks are spurring studies on defining the next-generation multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transceivers. For the design of advanced transceivers in wireless communications, optimization approaches often leading to iterative algorithms have achieved great success. Deep learning, approximating the iterative algorithms with deep neural networks (DNNs) can significantly reduce the computational time. Deep-unfolding has emerged which incorporates the benefits of both deep learning and iterative algorithms, by unfolding the iterative algorithm into a layer-wise structure.
