Embodiment Construction

[0026] figure 1 is a diagrammatic representation of a cross-sectional view of a portion of a phased array antenna embedded within a structural panel 10 of an aircraft fabricated according to the methods of the present disclosure. Image 6 yes figure 1 A diagrammatic representation of a perspective view of a portion of a structural panel 10 shown in . As previously mentioned, the structural panel 10 may be a panel of the fuselage construction of the aircraft, a panel 10 of the wing construction of the aircraft, a panel 10 of the tail rudder construction of the aircraft, or one of other structural panels of the entire aircraft construction.

[0027] refer to figure 2 , in a method of manufacturing an antenna embedded inside a structural panel 10 of an aircraft, a first panel 12 of glass fibers is formed. To increase the structural strength of the panel 10, high strength fiberglass is used to form the first panel 12, such as Astroquartz fiberglass produced by JPS Composites (...

Abstract

The present invention relates to structural multilayer antenna design and fabrication, and discloses a structural panel of an aircraft which is constructed with a multiphase antenna embedded inside the structural panel between multiple sheets of fiberglass.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure pertains to the construction and fabrication of multilayer antenna designs, and more particularly to phased array antennas embedded inside the structural panels of an aircraft. Background technique [0002] The construction of typical antenna systems, and phased array antenna systems in particular, can be very large and heavy. A typical phased array antenna system might be 6 feet long, 18 inches high, and 1.5 inches thick. When such an antenna system is integrated into an aircraft, the antenna system itself and the supporting structure required for the antenna system may occupy a significant portion of the internal volume of the aircraft. If such antenna systems and their required support structures are attached to the exterior of the aircraft, they can add substantial drag to the aircraft. Contents of the invention [0003] The disclosed structural multi-layer antenna design and its fabrication overcomes the disadvantages of...
