Abstract: We propose a miniaturized wideband metasurface antenna for 60-GHz antenna-in-package applications. With the glass integrated passive device manufacturing technology, we introduce a coplanar-waveguide-fed (CPW-fed) ring resonator to characterize the material properties of the glass substrate. The proposed antenna is designed on a high dielectric constant glass substrate to achieve antenna miniaturization. Because of the existence of gaps between patch units compared with the conventional rectangular patch in the TM₁₀ mode, the radiation aperture of this proposed antenna is reduced. Located right above the center feeding CPW-fed bow-tie slot, the metasurface patch is realized, supporting the TM₁₀ mode and antiphase TM₂₀ mode simultaneously to improve the bandwidth performance. Using a probe-based antenna measurement setup, the antenna prototype is measured, demonstrating a 10-dB impedance bandwidth from 53.3 to 67 GHz. At 60 GHz, the antenna gain measured is about 5 dBi in the boresight direction with a compact radiation aperture of 0.31λ₀×0.31λ₀ and a thickness of 0.06λ₀.
