Printed-circuit board arrangement for millimeter-wave scanners
First Claim
1. A printed-circuit board arrangement for the electrical connection of at least one transmitter and/or receiver unit with at least one antenna element, wherein the at least one transmitter and/or receiver unit and the at least one antenna element are at least partially integrated in the printed-circuit board arrangement,wherein the printed-circuit board arrangement comprises different printed circuit boards, which are mechanically connected to one another in a rigid manner, wherein a first part of the printed-circuit board arrangement is formed by at least one printed-circuit board, of which a substrate is made from a first material, which is suitable for high-frequency, and a second part of the printed-circuit board arrangement is formed by at least one printed-circuit board of which a substrate is made from a second material different from the first material, which is suitable only for a low frequency or for a direct voltage range, wherein at least one cavity in which the transmitter and/or receiver unit is integrated, is milled and/or punched in the first part of the printed-circuit board arrangement, and wherein, with the exception of a recess for a horn element, an upper surface of an electrically conductive cover is covered by a damping mat and/or an underside of the electrically conductive cover above the cavity of the first part of the printed-circuit board arrangement is covered by a damping mat.

Abstract
A printed-circuit board arrangement electrically connects the at least one transmitter and/or receiver unit with at least one antenna element, whereas the at least one transmitter and/or receiver unit and the at least one antenna element are at least partially integrated into the printed-circuit board arrangement. In this context, the printed-circuit board arrangement includes different printed circuit boards, which are mechanically connected to one another in a rigid manner. A first part of the printed-circuit board arrangement is formed by at least one printed-circuit board, of which the substrate is made from a first material which is suitable for high-frequency, and a second part of the printed-circuit board arrangement is formed by at least one printed-circuit board, of which the substrate is made from a second material different from the first material, which is still sufficiently suitable for a low frequency and/or for a direct-voltage range.
