Abstract :
Summary form only given, as follows. This paper presents, for the first time, a low cost, 60 GHz, RF front-end Tx/Rx integrated with a Yagi-Uda antenna array on organic Liquid Crystal Polymer substrate. The Tx/Rx module consists of a GaAs LNA, PA and a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch wirebonded on a single, multilayer substrate. The radiation pattern measurements were conducted and showed an active antenna gain of 31.8 dB for the receiver and 21.6 dB of gain for the transmitter.
