A conformal telemetry package comprises a complete system including sensors, data acquisition components, a controller, RF transmitter, antenna and battery. The package is approximate 0.1 inch thick and is flexible and capable of conformable mounting to a curved surface. This package includes a printed circuit antenna such as a microstrip patch antenna. The bottom of the package is coated with an adhesive permitting the system to be mounted on surfaces such as the leading edge of an air foil. The package is kept thin and flexible by using multiple layers of flexible dielectric such as Teflon and extremely high levels of circuit integration.
