Abstract:
An improved antenna design for stacked patch antenna to be integrated with a RF chip is proposed. The antenna is to be manufactured in LTCC technology which simplifies integration with a RF chip. The antenna has an operational bandwidth from 58.8GHz to 68.4GHz (15.1%) and a gain of 3-3.5dBi.
