Sivers Semiconductors will be in Booths 12013 and 12014 at IMS2022 to present live demonstrations covering both the licensed 26-, 28-, and 39-GHz bands and the unlicensed 60-GHz band. The company will also exhibit some successful implementations of its technology in commercial products.

Among the products to be used in over-the-air demonstrations are:

SUMMIT2629 and SUMMIT3741: These devices are eight-channel RF front ends for 28-GHz and 39-GHz, 5G phased-array antenna systems fabricated in RF-SOI.
TRB02801 and TRB03901: These 32-channel beamforming transceiver RFICs boast support for both zero-IF and IF baseband interfaces.
BFM02801 and BFM03901: These are a pair of active antenna modules based on the TRB RFICs.
39-GHz Antenna-in Package (AiP): This demo features state-of-the art integration of the SUMMIT beamformer ICs with a unique antenna building practice.

Several demos will include configurations with partners which will be demonstrated both in Sivers Semiconductors booths as well as in the partner booths:

Airvine: Airvine recently announced the availability of their WaveTunnel, which is based on the Sivers TRXBF01 RFIC for superior performance in the 60-GHz band. It will be demonstrated live at the Sivers booth.

Kreemo: Kreemo has integrated the Sivers beamformer ICs with its innovative antennas, exemplified by the stackable antenna solutions for 360º coverage of 5G FR2 radios. This and other products will be demonstrated live at both the Kreemo and Sivers booths.

Sivers will also exhibit some successful implementations of its technology in commercial products. Examples that will be shown are CCS, Airvine, and Tachyon Networks offering a novel and cost-effective 60-GHz PmP (Point-to-MultiPoint) product, benefiting from the features enabled by Sivers' technology.
