Performance-Issues-Mitigation-Techniques for On-Chip-Antennas – Recent Developments in RF, MM-Wave, and Thz Bands With Future Directions

“…Several MM-Wave frequency bands find their use in a plethora of different valuable applications. The unlicensed 60 GHz band, for example, can be used for Wireless personal area network, (WPAN), radiometry, radio astronomy, broadband radio communication [14], [17], [32]- [35] and short range wireless communications with high data rates and frequency reuse benefits [36], [37]. MM-Wave radars are gaining importance in numerous applications like industrial, automotive, remote control sensing, material characterization, imaging, and security systems [22], [29], [38].…”

“…Hence, these values degrade the gain, directivity, and radiation efficiency (i.e. performance) of AoC and thus make CMOS substrate a lossy one for AoC design [1], [2], [14], [15], [17], [20]- [22], [24], [25], [29], [31], [32], [35], [42], [47]. This, thus, dictates the need for innovative performance-issues-mitigation-techniques for AoCs.…”
