A method of making a double-sided antenna for high frequency devices is
discussed. The method includes forming metal patterns on both sides of a
substrate having pre-formed connection holes. Preferably, the metal
patterns are formed using a printing ink having a precursor and a
solvent. In one embodiment, the metal patterns include coils which are
formed on both sides of the substrate. In one embodiment, shunt bars are
used to speed up the process of making the metal patterns. The shunt bars
are punched out at the end of the process to electrically isolate the
metal patterns.
