1. An electronic package comprising:
- a. a top cover section including at least one antenna element formed on an external surface thereof and a chip with radio frequency (RF) circuitry mounted on an internal surface thereof;
b. at least one antenna feed for functionally coupling the RF circuitry to the at least one antenna element; and
c. a bottom cover section enclosing the chip and joined to the top cover section,whereby the package provides multiple input-multiple output support on the chip.

Abstract
An electronic RF chip package with integrated antenna includes a top cover section having on its external surface an integrated antenna with antenna elements resonating at different polarizations, a RF chip mounted on an internal surface of the top cover section and functionally coupled to the antenna elements to provide the different polarizations and a bottom cover section shaped to accommodate the RF chip. The RF functional coupling is provided through radiating coupling slots or vias formed in the top cover section.
