ABSTRACT:
An antenna array comprises a plurality of integrated antenna units. Each integrated antenna unit includes an oscillator coupled through a transformer to an antenna. The oscillators are formed on a semiconductor substrate and the antennas and transformers are formed in metal layers overlaying the semiconductor substrate.
