Abstract

See full text

A structure for performing socket power calibration comprises a plurality of socket ports on a load board electrically coupled to a plurality of traces on a first end of a flexible printed circuit board, wherein the plurality of traces are configured to allow traversal of an electrical signal from the plurality of socket ports to a waveguide. The structure further comprises the plurality of traces, wherein the traces are operable to terminate on a second end of the flexible printed circuit board into a plurality of patch antennas, wherein the plurality of patch antennas is adapted to radiate the electrical signal into the waveguide. Finally, the structure also comprises a power sensor electrically coupled to the waveguide, wherein the waveguide is configured to communicate the electrical signal from the waveguide to the power sensor.
