Abstract :
This paper presents a microstrip-fed slot antenna implemented in ON Semiconductor´s Integrated Passive Device (IPD) technology. The antenna has been designed and optimized to operate in the frequency range of 58 to 63 GHz with 3.5 dBi radiation gain. The entire size of the antenna is 2 mm x 3 mm. The proposed antenna can be integrated with other active elements of the mm-wave systems in the same package as a flip-chip antenna die to obtain a fully integrated 60 GHz radio.
