Summary form only given, as follows. This paper reports on possible interconnect solutions between a Silicon MMIC and an off-chip antenna. These shall both be integrated within a plastic package to achieve a 122 GHz system-in-package. Coplanar wire bond and flip chip interconnects are shortly introduced and compared. Simulation and measurement results of matched interconnects are then evaluated in a frequency range between 110 and 170 GHz.
