ANTENNA UNIT AND PANEL ARRAY ANTENNA DEVICE
First Claim
1. An antenna unit comprising:
- an antenna substrate having an antenna element forming surface in which an antenna element is formed;
a reflective plate disposed on the antenna element forming surface of the antenna substrate;
a receiver board disposed on a surface of the antenna substrate opposite to a surface facing the reflective plate of the antenna substrate, the receiver board having a receiver module formed therein and configured to process a signal received by the antenna element;
a transmitter board disposed substantially parallel to a surface of the receiver board opposite to a surface facing the antenna substrate, the transmitter board having a transmitter module formed therein and configured to transmit a transmission signal from the antenna element of the antenna substrate;
a cooling plate disposed on a surface of the transmitter board opposite to a surface facing the receiver board, and configured to cool down heat generated by the transmitter module; and
a connection interface connecting the transmitter board and the receiver board and configured to transmit a signal therebetween, whereinthe transmission signal generated by the transmitter module is sent to the antenna substrate via the connection interface and the receiver module.

Abstract
An antenna unit includes an antenna substrate, a reflective plate, a receiver board, a transmitter board, a cooling plate and a connection interface. The reflective plate is disposed on an antenna element forming surface of the antenna substrate. The receiver board is disposed on a surface of the antenna substrate opposite to a surface facing the reflective plate, and has a receiver module to process a received signal . The transmitter board is disposed substantially parallel to a surface of the receiver board opposite to a surface facing the antenna substrate, and has a transmitter module to process a transmission signal. The cooling plate is disposed on a surface of the transmitter board opposite to the surface facing the receiver board and is configured to cool down heat generated by the transmitter module. The connection interface connects the transmitter board and the receiver board to transmit a signal therebetween.
