Abstract: The wireless chip-to-chip interface is an interesting alternative to wired digital buses. An important element from a wireless interconnect is the monolithic integrated antenna. On-chip antennas have to meet several restrictions - they have to cover very little chip area and they need to have high radiation efficiency in a large enough frequency range to allow for fast interchip communication. This work describes two methods for designing efficient on-chip antennas, namely using high-impedance substrate with standard thickness, or using very thin substrate. The proposed antennas have been prototyped and their parameters were verified via measurement.
