Abstract

This paper reviews the development of active integrated antenna (AIA) concepts and applications at the Technische Universität München. These activities were originally initiated by Prof. Peter Russer. His relations to DaimlerChrysler Research, formerly AEG-Telefunken, Ulm, provided us with novel planar silicon based active devices. The paper follows the historical evolution: It starts from the first silicon based AIAs and demonstrates its continuous improvement. Several millimetre wave systems built by use of these Si-AIAs are presented. Then, the paper proceeds to GaAs based AIAs for the 24 GHz ISM-band and presents its application in an imaging RFID system.
