  • Abstract
    This paper presents a W-band fully on-chip bowtie slot antenna over a grounded low resistivity silicon substrate fabricated in 180 nm BiCMOS process. The measured results show that the proposed antenna could provide a wide input bandwidth covering the whole W-band. The simulated gain at 90 GHz is -1 dBi when considering several realistic effects.
