Abstract :
A two-element bow-tie dipole antenna and a single-element bow-tie slot antenna fabricated on a high dielectric constant (εr=10.2) substrate are introduced for applications at millimetre-wave frequencies. The former antenna provides 2 GHz bandwidth at 35 GHz and the latter 1.3 GHz at 32.7 GHz. With a broadband match, these antennas would yield significantly higher bandwidths
