This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop a new family of MilliMeter Wave (MMW) boards and circuit structures for coplanar antennas applications. In particular, a high temperature, low dielectric constant, and lightweight polymer film as the substrate of the MMW board will be used. The millimeter wave bands are particularly of interest for wireless applications due to its wide frequency spectrum, high data transfer rate, compact size hardware, and without (or very little) interference system configurations. Because of these requirements, the commercial sector has an increasing interest in MMW structures and devices. However, since MMW frequency range is one to three orders of magnitude higher than the conventional microwave range, there are several subject areas that need technology improvements. Millimeter wave (MMW) devices operating in the range of 10-500 GHz has increasing applications in military and commercial communication, surveillance, and navigation technologies. Potential commercial applications of the proposed MMW structures and devices include mobile wide-band cellular systems, fixed wireless broadband access systems, wireless local area networks, wireless vehicle, coplanar and multilayer antennas.

这个小型企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目将开发一个新的毫米波（MMW）板和电路结构的共面天线应用的家庭。特别地，将使用高温、低介电常数和轻质聚合物膜作为MMW板的基板。毫米波段由于其宽频谱、高数据传输速率、紧凑尺寸的硬件以及没有（或很少）干扰的系统配置而对于无线应用特别感兴趣。由于这些要求，商业部门对毫米波结构和器件的兴趣越来越大。然而，由于毫米波频率范围比传统微波范围高一到三个数量级，因此有几个主题领域需要技术改进。工作在10-500 GHz范围内的毫米波（MMW）器件在军事和商业通信、监视和导航技术中的应用越来越多。提出的毫米波结构和器件的潜在商业应用包括移动的宽带蜂窝系统、固定无线宽带接入系统、无线局域网、无线车辆、共面和多层天线。
