These connections encompass training, computer-aided design, intellectual property, prototyping, tooling, packaging, testing, and production. In its first year of operation, S3B identified numerous opportunities where advanced packaging could have a profound impact, opening up new horizons for semiconductor system design, performance, cost efficiency, and overall effectiveness.

In this presentation, we will delve into the realm of advanced semiconductor packaging in the context of a specific project currently underway at Quasar Satellite Technologies QuasarSat. Achieving this adaptation at X-band and K-band frequencies is only feasible by using custom semiconductor designs.

Biography

The efforts of John O'Sullivan, David Skellern, and Terence Percival in developing and commercializing high-speed Wi-Fi provided the milestone technology for practically all in-home and local area mobile Internet communications. O’Sullivan initiated and led the early efforts in techniques for very high-speed wireless networks at Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO). Percival took over and led the CSIRO project that modeled and prototyped the high-speed modulation schemes and hardware needed for successful Wi-Fi communications. Working in conjunction with CSIRO, Skellern led a pioneering project on wireless local area networks at Macquarie University and in 1997 co-founded, with Percival and Neil Weste, Radiata Communications to commercialize the CSIRO-Macquarie research. O’Sullivan joined Radiata in 1999. In 2000 Radiata demonstrated the first working Wi-Fi system based on the IEEE 802.11a 5-GHz standard.

An IEEE Life Fellow, Skellern is chairman of CMCRC Ltd, Sydney, Australia.
