RF MEMS Devices in Wireless Communication Systems

RF MEMS devices have emerged as a key enabling technology for next generation wireless communication systems due to their low loss, high linearity, wide tunability,

compact size, and compatibility with highly integrated front-end architectures. This Collection aims to present recent advances in RF MEMS devices, components, and systems for wireless communications, covering both fundamental device innovations and practical system-level applications. Topics of interest include RF MEMS switches, resonators, tunable filters, reconfigurable matching networks, phase shifters, antennas, acoustic and hybrid MEMS platforms, as well as fabrication technologies, packaging, reliability, and co-integration with CMOS and other semiconductor platforms. Contributions addressing applications in 5G/6G communications, satellite and aerospace systems, IoT, sensing, and adaptive RF front ends are particularly welcome. This Collection seeks to provide an interdisciplinary forum for researchers working on the design, fabrication, modeling, and application of RF MEMS technologies for future wireless systems.

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9
