Large jobs for little devices
Article Abstract:
Micromechanical systems (MEMS) could become important components of radio frequency (RF) devices, making them smaller, faster and cheaper. This has directly to do with the three most significant technical problems of mobile wireless devices: power consumption, sensitivity and physical size. MEMS have a potential to enhance the entire range of communications technology applications.
