Hans Brouwer has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Horn-like extension for integrated antenna
    Patent number: 9979091
    Abstract: A radiofrequency assembly includes a module with an antenna assembly formed in a semiconductor integrated circuit. The semiconductor integrated circuit can carry out at least one of the following functions: transmitting an electromagnetic signal, and receiving an electromagnetic signal. The radiofrequency assembly further includes a horn-like structure with a base portion adapted to fit on the module. The horn-like structure has an extending horn-shaped portion an input opening that encloses the antenna assembly when the horn-like structure is fitted on the module.
    Type: Grant

  • Radiofrequency module
    Patent number: 9614277
    Abstract: A radio frequency module comprises an antenna assembly on a semiconductor integrated circuit that can transmit an electromagnetic signal in a frequency band of interest, or receive an electromagnetic signal in a frequency band of interest, or both. In the radio frequency module, a conductive layer that forms a signal ground plane. At least one semiconductor layer of the semiconductor integrated circuit forms part of this dielectric spacing. The dielectric spacing is arranged so that an electromagnetic signal in the frequency band of interest that traverses through the dielectric spacing from the antenna assembly to the conductive layer that forms the signal ground plane experiences a phase shift comprised in the range between 60 and 120 degrees.
