A low efficiency integrated circuit (IC) antenna includes an antenna element and a transmission line. The antenna element is on a first metal layer of a die and has a length less than approximately one-tenth of a wavelength or greater than one-and-one-half times the wavelength for a frequency band of approximately 55 GHz to 64 GHz. The transmission line is on the die and is electrically coupled to feed points of the antenna element.
