A method (200, 200a, 300) of manufacturing an
integrated antenna device (100, 100a, 100b) includes: a circuit board
assembly is provided; the circuit board
assembly includes a substrate (110) and at least one antenna (120); an at least one radio-frequency
integrated circuit module (189) is positioned to the second surface (114) of the substrate (110), each of the radio-frequency
integrated circuit modules (189) includes a radio-frequency
integrated circuit (130) and a
heat conducting structure (160, 160b); at least one set of
metal pillars (140) is positioned to the second surface (114); an encapsulant is disposed on the second surface (114), and solidified into an encapsulation (150, 152) to encapsulate each of the radio-frequency integrated circuit modules (189) and the
metal pillars (140); and the encapsulation (150, 152) is polished until each of the
heat conducting structures (160, 160b) and the second ends (144) are exposed from the encapsulation (150, 152).
