Patent attributes
An apparatus includes a plurality of antenna modules and a printed circuit board (PCB) having a plurality of holes embedded with a heat sink. Each antenna module includes an antenna substrate, a plurality of three-dimensional (3-D) antenna cells mounted on a first surface of the antenna substrate, and a plurality of packaged circuitry mounted on a second surface of the antenna substrate. The plurality of packaged circuitry are electrically connected with the plurality of 3-D antenna cells. Each of the plurality of antenna modules is mounted on a plurality of portions of the heat sink such that a corresponding packaged circuitry of the plurality of packaged circuitry is in a direct contact with the plurality of portions of the heat sink embedded within the plurality of holes.
