We present in this paper an integrated cavity‐backed patch antenna operating at 75 GHz. The design was optimized using a full‐wave software based on the integral‐equation method. The antenna was realized using micromachining technologies on two wafers: a silicon one supporting a membrane and a radiating patch, and a Pyrex one constituting the feeding element. The measurements are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 26: 298–302, 2000.
