Abstract :
This paper discusses the EM modelling and practical design of millimeter wave microstrip patch elements in the frequency range of 80 GHz on low cost MCM-D substrates. The critical parameters of millimeter-wave design such as losses, bandwidth and the influence of process tolerances on antenna performance are discussed
