Abstract:
Embodiments of a folded meta-inspired antenna for dual-band operation and user equipment for dual-band operation in a wireless network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the folded meta-inspired antenna may include first and second conductive layers disposed on opposite sides of a substrate to provide a wideband distributed structure comprising a plurality of high-Q resonances resulting from, at least in part, metamaterial-based loading. Conductive material on the first side of the substrate is arranged around a central longitudinal slot coupled with a plurality of perpendicular slots. For dual-band operation, the folded meta-inspired antenna may operate as a folded monopole at a higher frequency band and operate as a slot-type radiator at a lower frequency band. The plurality of resonances may cause the folded meta-inspired antenna to achieve broader bandwidth at both lower and higher frequency bands.

Abstract:
Disclosed are integration approaches for mm-wave planar phased array type architectures using multilayer substrate technologies. For instance, an apparatus may include a plurality of substrate layers, an integrated circuit, and a connector module. The plurality of substrate layers includes a first substrate layer having one or more phased array elements. The integrated circuit exchange one or more radio frequency (RF) signals (e.g., mm-wave signals) with the one or more phased array elements. The connector module exchange further signals with the integrated circuit that correspond to the one or more RF signals. For example, these further signals may be baseband or intermediate frequency (IF) signals.
