  • Patent number: 11135763
    Abstract: An assembly formed by additive manufacturing comprises a top face sheet, a bottom face sheet, and a core structure between the top face sheet and the bottom face sheet, the core structure comprising a plurality of cells, wherein structural elements of the core structure defining the plurality of cells exhibit at least one electrical property in at least one direction varying from at least one electrical property in a second, different direction and at least one structural property in at least one direction varying from at least one structural property in a second, different direction, wherein at least a portion of the structural elements comprises a radar absorbing structure, the structural elements comprising a matrix material and at least one additive dispersed in or on the matrix material. Related radar absorbing structures and related methods of fabricating the radar absorbing structures are also disclosed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7372424
    Abstract: A phased array antenna includes a substrate, and multiple radiating elements conformally mounted as micro-strip on the substrate. Each of the radiating elements is of a triangular shape, and four of the radiating elements are arranged to form a crossed bowtie cloverleaf radiator. In addition, the four radiating elements form two pairs of radiating elements, and the two pairs of radiating elements are orthogonal to each other. The radiating elements are disposed on a front surface of the substrate, and a RF center conductor is orthogonally oriented toward a rear surface of the substrate and connected to one of the radiating elements for feeding a RF signal to the one radiating element.

  • Patent number: 6552691
    Abstract: A dual-polarized radiator for a phased array antenna includes two planar microstrip notch elements that interlock and are perpendicular to each other having their phase centers coincident to provide advantageous operational characteristics when the elements are used to form a wide bandwidth, wide scan angle phased array antenna.
