Abstract:
1. A device comprises: a processing module coupled to: a millimeter wave (MMW) oscillation module coupled to generate a modulated MMW signal based on the modulated data, wherein the MMW oscillation module includes a phase locked loop coupled to generate an in-phase oscillation component and a quadrature oscillation component based on a reference oscillation and the modulated data, wherein the modulated MMW signal includes the in-phase oscillation component and the quadrature oscillation component; a MMW beamforming module coupled to convert the modulated MMW signal into a plurality of MMW beamformed signals based on the beamforming setting, wherein the MMW beamforming module includes a plurality of phase adjust modules, wherein a phase adjust module includes: a plurality of amplifiers coupled to amplify the plurality of MMW beamformed signals in accordance with the transmit power setting to produce a MMW near field transmission.
