Abstract :
A combination of new fabrication technologies, improved RF modelling techniques and novel applications of EBG structures have been combined to illustrate how future highly compact millimeterwave antennas can be fabricated using silicon processing. Experimental results have confirmed that the designed antennas showed improved performances in terms of directivity and beamwidth, which could find many applications in millimeterwave bands
