There is an increasing need for tunable antennas in the 60 GHz band for remote sensing application and wireless communication. Traditional tuning solutions are based on semiconductor or conventional RF-MEMS but these component face cost, complexity and losses issues at millimeter waves. In this thesis, an original approach was developed: it is based on the mechanical reconfiguration of millimeter wave microstrip antennas and devices printed on ultrasoft elastomeric PDMS substrate, thanks to large displacement MEMS actuators.First, a quick history and context on the telecommunication explain the recent interest toward the 60 GHz band for telecommunication and the need for tenability and advantage of mechanical tenability at this frequencies....
