Abstract :
A broadband and high-efficiency 60GHz folded dipole antenna integrated in a plastic package technology was presented. Its performance showed an extremely low sensitivity to the variable surrounding package and board level environments, which is of importance at mmWave frequencies. Furthermore, the presence of the silicon chip in a plastic package can be important for the antenna gain bandwidth enhancement.
