| Abstract | A new topology of high-gain fixed-beam substrate-integrated planar antenna for packaged millimeter-wave transceiver modules is presented. It is based on a discrete planar lens antenna integrated on a thick dielectric substrate and illuminated by a focal source antenna placed on the opposite face of the substrate. The main objective of this architecture is to significantly enhance the integration of millimeter-wave transceiver modules with high-gain in-package antennas while using cost-effective technologies and fabrication processes. The concept is demonstrated through the design of a linearly-polarized discrete-lens antenna operating at V band with a simulated gain of 18.1 dBi at 60 GHz and a 3-dB gain bandwidth of 24.4% (54-69 GHz). © 2017 Euraap. |
