Zusammenfassung:Embodiments include a sensor node, an active sensor node, and a vehicle with a communication system that includes sensor nodes. The sensor node include a package substrate, a diplexer/combiner block on the package substrate, a transceiver communicatively coupled to the diplexer/combiner block, and a first mm-wave launcher coupled to the diplexer/combiner block. The sensor node may have a sensor communicatively coupled to the transceiver, the sensor is communicatively coupled to the transceiver by an electrical cable and located on the package substrate. The sensor node may include that the sensor operates at a frequency band for communicating with an electronic control unit (ECU) communicatively coupled to the sensor node. The sensor node may have a filter communicatively coupled to the diplexer/combiner block, the transceiver communicatively coupled to the filter, the filter substantially removes frequencies from RF signals other than the frequency band of the sensor.
