Abstract
A printed circuit board (PCB) antenna includes a main antenna radiator element embedded within substrate material of a multilayered PCB such that the main antenna radiator element is formed on, or within, a different substrate layer than other components of the PCB antenna. The PCB antenna includes a first PCB substrate, and a first conductive pattern formed on the first PCB substrate, where the first conductive pattern comprises an antenna radiator. The PCB antenna includes a second PCB substrate that is affixed to a first side of the first PCB substrate, and includes a second conductive pattern formed on the second PCB substrate, where the second conductive pattern comprises an antenna ground connection, and an antenna feed connection. The antenna ground connection and the antenna feed connect, through substrate material, to a first end of the antenna radiator of the first PCB substrate.
