  • Abstract
    A slot antenna implemented in a thin cavity-down ceramic ball grid array (CBGA) package in low-temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) technology is reported. The antenna, intended for use in highly integrated 60 GHz radios, has achieved an acceptable impedance band width from 59 to 65 GHz and a peak gain of 11 dBi at 61.5 GHz with an estimated efficiency of 94%.
