AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
The use of waveguide antennae in RF systems requires additional space due to their voluminous character, especially when multiple RF channels are needed, leading to increased manufacturing costs and larger mounting areas.
Method used
Integrate the waveguide antenna as a part of the RF system's housing, where it forms a wall of the enclosure, reducing the overall size and allowing for more RF channels without increasing the lateral dimension, and optionally incorporating a protection structure like a radome to protect against contamination.
Benefits of technology
This approach reduces the size and cost of the RF system while enabling more RF channels and channels per unit area, with improved mechanical protection and RF signal gain.

Abstract
A radio frequency (RF) system is disclosed. The RF system comprises an RF semiconductor chip electrically and mechanically coupled with a printed circuit board. A housing, wherein the RF semiconductor chip and the printed circuit board are inside of the housing. The housing comprises a case and a waveguide antenna, wherein a first side of the waveguide antenna faces the printed circuit board. The case is mounted on the waveguide antenna, and wherein the waveguide antenna is coupled with the RF semiconductor chip to transmit and receive RF signals.
