Abstract
In this paper, a high-gain 2×2 antenna array at 60 GHz using GaN MMIC process technology is presented. For gain enhancement, a modified patch antenna element with two parasitic strips on each non-radiation edge and a parasitic patch on one of the radiation edges is proposed. This antenna element achieves a gain of 3.42 dBi at 60 GHz, about 2 dBi higher than a conventional patch antenna element using the same process technology. The 2×2 antenna array consisting of four modified patch antenna element exhibits a 10-dB impedance bandwidth of 10.1% and a peak gain of 5.7 dBi at 60 GHz.
