Abstract: A high-frequency module in which a plurality of cavities are formed on the surface of a dielectric board, internal high-frequency signal transmission lines are connected to high-frequency devices in the cavities and are located in the cavities, the internal high-frequency signal transmission lines being electromagnetically coupled to the external high-frequency signal transmission line, and the high-frequency devices in the cavities are connected to each other relying on the electromagnetic coupling through the external line. The high-frequency module enables high-frequency signals to be transmitted among the high-frequency devices with a small loss. The module has a very simple structure, and is cheaply produced, and offers an advantage that it can be easily obtained in a small size.

Abstract: A structure for mounting a high-frequency device on an insulating board having a circuit on a top surface and transmitting signals to the high-frequency device. The high-frequency device is sealed within a cavity on a top surface of a dielectric board. The dielectric board has a first signal transmission line on its top surface and a second signal transmission line on its bottom surface, the first and second signal transmission lines overlapping each other over a portion where the signal is transmitted through coupling of the first and second signal transmission lines. A recess is formed at the top surface of the insulating board below the overlapping portion of the first and second signal transmission lines to suppress transmission loss of the high-frequency signal between the first and second signal transmission lines. The recess may be filled with air or a material having a dielectric constant low than that of the insulating board.
