Antenna on glass for 60GHz WiGig application

In this paper, we investigate antenna on glass and compare the property with antenna on ceramic substrate at 60GHz band for Wireless Gigabit alliance application. The design of Antenna on Corning EAGLE XG Glass is dependent on the result of simulation. The structure of a glass antenna with one redistribution layer (RDL) on the front-side and one ground metal on the backside has been fabricated. The antenna property is compared with the simulation result and on ceramic substrate. The results indicate that performance of this antenna on glass is better than on low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) substrate. The data show the feasibility of glass substrate for electronics applications.
