A Conformal antenna with Proper Shape and Good Electrical Properties

Abstract

Abstract A conformal antenna based on Teflon with proper shape to get more space is presented. It is accomplished by using three-dimensional simulation design software HFSS to achieve the best method. A special kind of Teflon has been chosen to meet the requirement for light weight and ease of installation. A series of antennas is designed and optimized and the best result shows that the conformal antenna could achieve 80% relative impedance bandwidth and peak gain>3dBi at 4GHz. The far-field patterns of antenna are also analyzed and have an acceptable performance. All the results show that this kind of antenna can work well for engineering applications with high cost.
