Usurupati Samiyalu is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in the field of RF Integrated Circuits at the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST), Thiruvananthapuram. His research is centered on the design, development, and realization of RF circuits and antennas using CMOS technology for next-generation wireless and sub-THz applications.
He has been actively involved in the design of key RFIC components, including on-chip inductors, wideband on-chip antennas, voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs), buffers, and injection-locked oscillators. His work spans both passive and active RF circuits targeting millimeter-wave and sub-THz frequencies. He has participated in two silicon tape-outs—one based on a 180 nm CMOS process for the implementation of on-chip inductors, and another using a 65 nm CMOS process that includes an injection-locked quadrature VCO (QVCO), a millimeter-wave transmitter chain, a sub-THz signal generator with an integrated on-chip antenna, and a sub-THz generator with an injection-locked frequency divider.
His M.Tech thesis, titled “A Sub-THz Fundamental Signal Generator in 65 nm CMOS Process with Integrated On-Chip Antenna”, was recognized with the Best Thesis Award in the postgraduate category by the IEEE MTT-S Kerala Section in 2022.
Previously, from August 2021 to September 2023, he worked as a Junior Research Fellow on a DST-funded project titled “Investigation, Design, and Implementation of Multifunctional 5G Antenna Systems for Cognitive Radio and mm-Wave Applications.”
His research interests include RF CMOS circuit design, on-chip passive component modeling, mm-wave system design, and the development of compact antenna systems for future 6G sub-THz wireless communication.
