Abstract :
When using antenna structures in a wafer-level reliability production monitoring program, we must take into account some restrictive conditions with regard to the available space for the required test structures and the time allowed for testing them. The purpose of this investigations was to find arguments for efficient selection of test structures and an appropriate choice of evaluation tests
