A wafer-scale die packaging device is fabricated by providing a high-k glass carrier substrate having a ceramic region which includes a defined waveguide area and extends to a defined die attach area, and then forming, on a first glass carrier substrate surface, a differential waveguide launcher having a pair of signal lines connected to a radiating element that is positioned adjacent to an air cavity and surrounded by a patterned array of conductors disposed over the ceramic region in a waveguide conductor ring. After attaching a die to the glass carrier substrate to make electrical connection to the differential waveguide launcher, a molding compound is formed to cover the die, differential waveguide launcher, and air cavity, and an array of conductors is formed in the molding compound to define a first waveguide interface perimeter surrounding a first waveguide interface interior.

A ridge gap waveguide millimeter-wave crossover bridge structure device includes: an upper planar metal plate and a bottom planar metal plate arranged in parallel; a supporting structure fixedly arranged between the two planar metal plates; a ridge waveguide fixed on the upper surface of the bottom planar metal plate, with an air gap between the upper planar metal plate and the ridge waveguide; and a plurality of metal pins fixed on the upper surface of the bottom planar metal plate and evenly arranged around the ridge waveguide. The ridge waveguide includes two transmission lines arranged crosswise and four impedance transformation structures respectively connected to the ends of the two transmission lines. The distal end of each of the impedance transformation structures away from the connected transmission line is used to connect with external test equipment to be accommodated in four input ports in the bottom planar metal plate.

This document describes a folded waveguide for antenna. The folded waveguide may be an air waveguide and includes a hollow core that forms a rectangular opening in a longitudinal direction at one end, a closed wall at an opposite end, and a sinusoidal shape that folds back and forth about a longitudinal axis that runs in the longitudinal direction through the hollow core. The hollow core forms a plurality of radiation slots, each including a hole through one of multiple surfaces that defines the hollow core. The radiation slots are arranged on the one surface to produce a particular antenna pattern. The radiation slots and sinusoidal shape enable the folded waveguide to prevent grating lobes from appearing in the particular antenna pattern on either side of a horizontal-polarity, main beam, or to prevent X-band lobes from appearing in the particular antenna pattern on either side of a vertical-polarity, main beam.
