Abstract
A study of a chip-scale approach to MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit) antenna design for millimeter-wave phased arrays has shown that good performance can be obtained from a simple, low-cost antenna element. It has also been shown that the type of arrays under consideration is technologically feasible and offers potential for cost-effective millimeter-wave systems. This chip-scale approach is seen to have several advantages over a wafer-scale approach for directly integrating the antenna element on a MMIC. It is also shown that the substrate extension will have a significant effect on the performance of the metal strip dipole antenna.Keywords
