Abstract

An integrated CMOS 60GHz phased array antenna module supporting symmetrical 32 elements TX/RX for wireless docking is described. The RFIC is packaged with a 6×6 patch antenna on LTCC creating a 25mm × 25mm LGA package having an antenna gain of 19dBi and ∼2dB routing loss. The TX total EIRP is 29dBm at -19dB EVM with scanning of +/-30deg. The RFIC is also packaged with two 2×16 slot loop antenna on high density PCB with 17dBi peak gain and steering of up to +/-50deg.
