Abstract :
In this paper we compare two low cost solutions, e.g. Rogers 5880LZ laminate and a single mask IC processed fused silica wafer, for the implementation of mm-wave antennas. The design, manufacturability and performance of the structures are compared for the wireless HD communication standard. Moreover, the use of ribbon cord bonding is presented and evaluated in terms of its performance for mm-wave applications.
