1. A method for fabricating an antenna and a shielded transmission line, the method comprising:
obtaining a first substrate and a second substrate;
disposing a feed line between the first substrate and the second substrate, the feed line being disposed on a first surface of the first substrate and a first surface of the second substrate;
disposing a ground plane on a second surface of the first substrate, the second surface of the first substrate being disposed opposite from the first surface of the first substrate;
disposing a shield on a second surface of the second substrate, the second surface of the second substrate being disposed opposite from the first surface of the second substrate; and
fabricating a slot between the ground plane and a radiating element for the antenna;
wherein portions of the feed line, the second substrate, the shield, portions of the first substrate, and portions of the ground plane collectively form the shielded transmission line.
