Claim 14:
15. A method for processing radio frequency (RF) signals, the method comprising:
receiving RF signals via a plurality of patch antennas disposed on a first surface of a substrate;
downconverting the RF signals to baseband signals using a radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC), the RFIC disposed on a second surface of the substrate, and the RFIC coupled to the plurality of patch antennas via a plurality of redistribution layers within the substrate; and
during the downconverting, insulating the RFIC from radio frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) using a shield, the shield being separate from the plurality of patch antennas and the shield being disposed on the second surface of the substrate.
