Title:
EMBEDDED RF VERTICAL INTERCONNECT FOR FLEXIBLE CONFORMAL ANTENNA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005025001
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
An RF signal transition (90) includes a channelized microstrip transmission structure (80), and a coplanar wave guide structure (150) in electrical communication with the channelized microstrip transmission structure. A caged troughline transitions tructure (100) is in electrical communication with the coplanar wave guide structure. A caged coaxial transmission structure (120) is in electrical communication with the troughline transition structure. The signal transition may be embedded in a flexible printed wiring board structure with a circulator (46) for a conformal antenna structure (10).
