Abstract :
A new configuration of a double folded double slot CPW feed micromachined antenna array was realized on a 1.5 ¿m thin three-layer dielectric membrane fabricated on a silicon substrate. The antenna was designed for an operating frequency of 38 GHz, and the double folded configuration was used for minimizing the membrane extension.
