An integrated circuit layout and architecture for reduced noise coupling between circuitry and on-chip antenna for wireless communications includes a monolithic semiconducting substrate having a plurality of integrated devices including a transmitter and/or a receiver. At least one on-chip balanced antenna is formed in or on the substrate. A balanced antenna feed structure electrically connects the antenna to the transmitter or receiver. At least one integrated device is substantially symmetrically disposed on the substrate relative to the on-chip antenna(s). The device(s) selected for substantially symmetrically placement are preferably those which generate the largest noise coupling.
