Advances in mmWave and THz antennas

Abstract:
Antennas are crucial components of a wireless communication system. Increasing operational frequency results in the miniaturization of the antenna size. Millimeter-wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) antennas can thereby be designed on-chip or in a semiconductor package. This talk outlines the key design considerations of mmWave and THz antennas. Trends in antenna integration and comparison of antenna design in applications including 5G, 6G, and radar, will be presented. The talk will conclude with design techniques for improved antenna radiation performance and overall system efficiency.
