An antenna system has a two-dimensional field of view, yet can be implemented on a surface, such as on electronic or photonic integrated circuits. The antenna system includes an array of antennas disposed in a predetermined non-linear pattern and a two-dimensional beamforming network (BFN). The antenna system can be steered/selectively beamformed in two dimensions through beam port selection. The beamforming network is disposed entirely on a single first surface. The beamforming network has a one-dimensional array-side interface disposed on the first surface and a one-dimensional beam-side interface disposed on the first surface. The antennas of the array of antennas are individually communicably coupled to the array-side interface. Segments of the beam-side interface map to respective pixels in the two-dimensional field of view.

An antenna structure includes a substrate, a plurality of reflective plates, a grounding plate, a radiating member and a plurality of conductive vias. The substrate contains liquid crystal polymer and has opposite first and second surfaces. The reflective plates are arranged in an array on the first surface of the substrate. The grounding plate is arranged on the second surface of the substrate and overlaps with the reflective plates in a normal direction of the substrate. The radiating member is on the second surface of the substrate and does not overlap with the reflective plates in the normal direction of the substrate. The radiating member has an open slot which is defined by a first radiating branch and a second radiating branch that generate at least two different operating frequency bands. The conductive vias respectively penetrate the substrate and connect with the reflective plates and the grounding plate.
