About

Peter M. Farrell is a leading figure in the development of millimeter-wave radar systems, with a particular focus on their miniaturization and integration into everyday consumer devices. His work bridges the gap between advanced semiconductor technology and practical, low-cost radar applications. Farrell’s research has been instrumental in demonstrating how small geometry CMOS processes can enable single-chip radar systems, dramatically reducing size and cost while operating at millimeter-wave frequencies. His highly cited 2017 paper, "Millimeter-wave integrated radar systems and techniques" (31 citations), provides a comprehensive framework for these integrated designs. Equally influential is his 2014 work, "Consumer radar: Opportunities and challenges" (20 citations), which explores the vast potential of tiny radar systems in applications ranging from automotive safety to personal protective equipment like safety helmets. Through these contributions, Farrell has helped define the emerging field of consumer radar, showing how once-exotic technology can be made accessible, affordable, and impactful for everyday safety and automation.
