“…There are many other techniques like silicon lens [68], ion irradiation [69], asymmetrical patch [70], impure Si wafer (high resistivity Si) [71,72], and split ring resonators (SRRs) [73] are some of the popular and trending techniques recently, which have been reported for enhancing the radiation characteristics of OCAs. In [68], a rectangular-shaped Si lens is used to increase gain by 8-13 dB.…”

“…The PSL not only provides the miniaturization by increasing electrical length but also acts as shield for the propagation of EM wave toward lossy Si [63]. Ion irradiation in [69] leads to less losses from Si wafer and subsequently enhancement in gain is observed. The asymmetry in the patch's slot changes the radiation of antenna and improves the directive gain [70].…”

With the evolution of 5G and 6G network architectures, the demand for highly compact system-on-chip-based devices with high data transfer capabilities has been increased significantly. While the advancement of very large-scale integration technology with the continuous scaling of complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor nodes put forward to integrate different functional modules of a complete system on a single IC board, the antenna being the largest component still remains outside of the chip. Integration of the antenna and other functional modules of a system on the same chip leads to produce a really compact and economical design. Though on-chip antenna (OCAs) have several other advantages and emerging applications, they have some design challenges in terms of low gain due to losses in the substrate, requirement of miniaturization at lower microwave frequencies (LMFs) (particularly, below 10 GHz), unavailability of proper design rules, etc. In this paper, analyzing the design challenges of OCAs, their current research trends and future perspective applications are discussed.
