Millimeter-wave waveguide communication system

摘要

The present disclosure provides a millimeter-wave waveguide communication system. The millimeter-wave waveguide communication system may comprise: a clock component, and at least two sets of millimeter-wave receiving/transmitting channels. The clock component is configured to provide a clock signal to sending ends and receiving ends of the two sets of millimeter-wave receiving/sending channels respectively. Each set of millimeter-wave receiving/sending channels comprises: a transmitter component, a receiver component and a transmission waveguide. The transmission waveguide is located between the transmitter component and the receiver component and is configured to provide a channel for millimeter-wave transmission. The top face, side face and/or bottom face of the transmission waveguide, except for active devices and accessories thereof, are plated with a metal conductive wall to form an electromagnetic shield from a transmission waveguide in an adjacent millimeter-wave receiving/sending channel. The metal conductive wall can minimize the crosstalk between the channels during high-speed communications, thereby improving data bandwidth and data throughput of the millimeter-wave communication system.
