Problems solved by technology

Among them, microwave chips, digital chips and PCB substrates adopt the traditional gold wire bonding method, which makes the insertion loss high and the standing wave coefficient deteriorate significantly in the millimeter wave frequency band
The discrete antenna and the millimeter-wave front-end are electrically interconnected through traditional connectors such as coaxial cables, SMA, and SMP, which have the disadvantages of large size and weight, and high power consumption, which limits the use of millimeter-wave radar in mobile terminals, the Internet of Things, Used in devices with high miniaturization requirements such as Internet of Vehicles
[0004] It can be seen from the above that the existing technology has the following problems: the millimeter-wave AiP phased array element is large in size, low in energy efficiency, serious in millimeter-wave loss, and the packaging structure is backward, which cannot meet the requirements of miniaturization and low cost.
