Abstract

An inflatable antenna may include an inflatable sock, an antenna, and an attachment port. The inflatable sock may have an inflated state and a deflated state, where the inflatable sock assumes an elongated inflated shape in the inflated state. The antenna may extend along the length of the inflatable sock. The attachment port may be configured for operable connection to an inflation mechanism.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 521,970, filed June 19, 2017, which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to antennas, and in particular to pneumatic antennas and related components. Background technique [0004] Large marine antennas are often unsightly and take up a lot of space. A typical marine antenna consists of a rigid plastic shell surrounding the antenna allowing communication with the receiver and / or transmitter. While larger antennas can improve antenna range and performance, smaller boats often don't have the space for permanently attached large marine antennas. Smaller boats carry handheld radios or have smaller antenna systems attached to the boat. However, in an emergency, the smaller antenna system may not be enough to contact nearby ships or the Coast Guard. So any improvements in antenna storag...
