Abstract
Screen printing is a proven manufacturing technology enabling high-volume production at low cost. The achievable efficiency of a screen-printed silver antenna structure for fourth generation (4G) mobile phone implementation is investigated, with a market-ready solution. The contribution of each element of the solution to the total efficiency is detailed.
