Abstract
In the field of millimeter band transmitting/receiving systems for a high-speed contactless transmission, an architecture is provided with a common processing circuit supplying modulation signals and a plurality of transmitting/receiving integrated circuits, all identical to one another, receiving these signals, and also a common clock. The transmitting/receiving integrated circuits each comprise: an oscillator locked with the clock signal to produce a carrier frequency, a transmit channel comprising a first controllable phase shift circuit, a frequency transposition to the carrier frequency, and a power amplifier, a receive channel comprising a low noise amplifier, a frequency transposition from the carrier frequency, and a second controllable phase shift circuit. An antenna is associated with each transmitting/receiving circuit.
