Millimeter Wave on Chip Antenna Using Dogbone Shape Artificial Magnetic Conductor

الملخص EN

An artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) applied in millimeter wave on chip antenna design based on a standard 0.18 μm CMOS technology is studied.

The AMC consisting of two-dimensional periodic dogbone shape elements is constructed at one metal layer of the CMOS structure.

After its performance has been completely investigated, it has been used in an on chip dipole antenna design as an artificial background to enhance efficiency of the dipole antenna.

The result shows that 0.72 dB gain has been achieved at 75 GHz when the AMC is constructed by a 4*6 dogbone array.
