In this paper, a low cost 28 GHz Antenna-in-Package (AIP) for a 5G communication system is designed and investigated. The antenna is implemented on a low-cost FR4 substrate with a phase shift control integrated circuit, AnokiWave phasor integrated circuit (IC). The unit cell where the array antenna and IC are integrated in the same plate constructs a flexible phase array system. Using the AIP unit cell, the desired antenna array can be created, such as 2 × 8, 8 × 8 or 2 × 64 arrays. The study design proposed in this study is a 2 × 2 unit cell structure with dimensions of 18 mm × 14 mm × 0.71 mm. The return loss at a 10 dB bandwidth is 26.5-29.5 GHz while the peak gain of the unit cell achieved 14.4 dBi at 28 GHz.
本文设计并研究了一种用于5G通信系统的低成本28GHz封装天线（AIP）。该天线采用低成本的FR4基板，并集成了一个相移控制集成电路——AnokiWave相量集成电路（IC）。阵列天线和IC集成在同一板上的单元构建了一个灵活的相控阵系统。使用AIP单元，可以创建所需的天线阵列，如2×8、8×8或2×64阵列。本研究提出的设计是一种尺寸为18mm×14mm×0.71mm的2×2单元结构。10dB带宽下的回波损耗为26.5 - 29.5GHz，而单元在28GHz时的峰值增益达到14.4dBi。
