  • Using near-field testing to determine how a radome affects the RF characteristics of an antenna
    Patent number: 12287359
    Abstract: An RF characterization system includes a processor that executes program instructions to determine how a radome affects RF characteristics of an antenna by retrieving near field measurement data of the radome and antenna, receiving an electronic image representation of the radome, and obtaining near field RF properties of the radome and antenna by combining the near field measurement data and the electronic image representation.

  • Antenna assembly with a multi-band radome and associated methods
    Patent number: 9537207
    Abstract: An antenna assembly is for a fuselage of an aircraft and includes a first satellite antenna operable in a first frequency range, a second satellite antenna operable in a second frequency range, and a radome covering the first and second satellite antennas. The radome includes, in stacked relation, an inner skin having a quartz fabric and epoxy resin, an inner core having epoxy syntactic foam, a center laminate having quartz fabric and epoxy resin, an outer core having epoxy syntactic foam, and an outer skin having quartz fabric and epoxy resin. A fairing mounts the radome to the fuselage of the aircraft.
