Grant Description: DARPA is soliciting innovative research proposals in Microscale Power Conversion. Proposed research should investigate innovative approaches that will ultimately realize an RF transmitter as either a monolithic integrated circuit or a system-in-package module in which a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) power amplifier is integrated with a dynamic voltage power supply and its controller circuit. Specifically excluded is research that primarily results in evolutionary improvements to the existing state of practice. See the full DARPA-BAA-11-33 document attached.
