Abstract
An antenna system with integrated electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielded heat sink is disclosed. The system includes an antenna circuit board with a plurality of antenna or radiating elements formed on a common plane comprising a first surface. Circuit elements are placed on a second surface of the antenna circuit board. In addition, the second surface of the antenna circuits board is connected to a pocketed EMI shielding cover with individual shield pockets serving as an EMI shield and a heat sink containing a cooling fluid. At least some adjacent pockets can be in fluid communication with one another.
