THREE-DIMENSIONAL ANTENNA STRUCTURE

摘要

A three-dimensional antenna structure includes first and second antenna components connected by one or more vias. The first antenna component is on a first layer of a substrate and the second antenna component is on a second layer of a substrate. The via couples the first antenna component to the second antenna component, wherein the first antenna overlaps, from a radial perspective, the second antenna component by an angle of overlap. Third and fourth antenna components are similarly constructed and connected. The antenna components can be formed in a modified Polya curve pattern within a geometric shape.
