Abstract:
A RF/antenna-module for a communications apparatus comprising:an active high frequency circuit with an antenna port and located on a module printed circuit board, and a printed module antenna with a feed line and a ground connector, located together on said module printed circuit board, wherein, the feed line is located adjacent to the antenna port but not connected thereto so that test signals can be applied to the antenna port for alignments or measurements of the high frequency circuit during module production/test; the module printed circuit board has a plurality of contacts for connection to a host printed circuit board when placing it on the host printed circuit board where the antenna port as well as the feed line are connected using a respective one of the plurality of contacts; and connection between the antenna port and the feed line is established by a conducting bridge on the host printed circuit board when said RF/antenna-module is mounted to said host circuit board.
