Abstract
The present invention provides a substrate-embedded antenna and an antenna array constituted by said antennas. An antenna of the present invention comprises a plurality of substrates, a metal fill and a feed line. Each of the substrates has at least one through-hole. The metal fill is placed within each through-hole, and each metal fill placed therein connects one another to form a columnar metal conductor which acts as a radiating body of the antenna. The feed line is electrically coupled to the metal conductor to input and output electrical signals. A plurality of said antennas may constitute an antenna array.
