Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An electronic device has a multilayer substrate that has an interface surface configured for interfacing to a dielectric waveguide. A conductive layer on the substrate is etched to form a dipole antenna disposed adjacent the interface surface to provide coupling to the dielectric waveguide. A reflector structure is formed in the substrate adjacent the dipole antenna opposite from the interface surface.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A planar, multilayer substrate comprising: a dielectric waveguide interface surface; a first conductive layer providing a dipole antenna adjacent the interface surface; and a reflector structure adjacent the dipole antenna opposite from the interface surface, the reflector structure having a second reflector plate conductive layer and a third reflector plate conductive layer arranged above and below the first conductive layer, and vias located on the sid…
