title = "Gain Enhancement of Antenna-on-Chip at 94 GHz with an Integrated Artificial Magnetic Conductor for 6G System-on-Chip",
abstract = "Silicon-based complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process has become one of the most popular processes to realize system-on-chip (SoC). However, as one of the essential components of wireless SoC, antennas are typically suffering from the poor radiation because of the highly conductive silicon substrate. Such antennas are known as antenna-on-chip (AoC). To enhance the radiation performance of AoC, artificial magnetic conductors (AMC) with double periodic strip structure layers has been proposed in this paper that can not only provide in-phase reflection but also isolate the antenna from the lossy silicon substrate. The proposed AMC shows a gain enhancement of 4.5 dB. The AMC-backed AoC is well-matched within 77-125 GHz and provides a boresight gain of 2 dBi at 94 GHz.",
