A fiber reinforced core panel is formed from strips of plastics foam helically wound with layers of rovings to form webs which may extend in a wave pattern or may intersect transverse webs. Hollow tubes may replace foam strips. Axial rovings cooperate with overlying helically wound rovings to form a beam or a column. Wound roving patterns may vary along strips for structural efficiency. Wound strips may alternate with spaced strips, and spacers between the strips enhance web buckling strength. Continuously wound rovings between spaced strips permit folding to form panels with reinforced edges. Continuously wound strips are helically wrapped to form annular structures, and composite panels may combine both thermoset and thermoplastic resins. Continuously wound strips or strip sections may be continuously fed either longitudinally or laterally into molding apparatus which may receive skin materials to form reinforced composite panels.

A low-profile antenna has increased broad-banding capacities as well as a lower radiation angle for enhanced cellular or mobile telephone wireless transmissions. Enhancing a basic PIFA antenna, a top metal radiator is notched so as to provide additional corners and greater perimeter length thereby enhancing the bandwidth capabilities of the antenna. Both ground and tuning tabs serve to enhance operational characteristics and a dielectric cover incorporating prismatic qualities serves to lower the radiation angle of transmission from approximately forty degrees (40 DEG ) to twenty degrees (20 DEG ). The prisms provide an operating radiation angle in the range of approximately seventy degrees (70 DEG ) to twenty degrees (20 DEG ). In one embodiment, a sheet of plastic foam slightly thicker than the depth of an associated connector is secured to the underside of the bottom plate to act as a friction seal when the antenna is screwed onto a mating connector, allowing for slight variations in the curvature of the mounting surface. By making the bottom conductive plate only slightly larger than the top radiator, the antenna's resonant frequency becomes independent of ground plane mounting and may not require such a ground plane. Under such circumstances, some adjustment of the tuning parameters may be required in order to provide optimum response.

A novel building construction is described for exterior building walls.
