An antenna comprising a crossed pair of center-fed end-loaded bent-dipole radiators which are structurally embedded into a properly loaded cavity. Broadband, dual independent polarized, and hemisphere field-of-view coverage with low RCS characteristics is provided with this antenna.

Broadband structurally-embedded conformal antenna

An antenna formed with a number of notch antennas forming an sectional inner ring and a sectional outer ring. Each of the notch antennas having a pair of leaves with a throat end proximate the inner ring and a leaf tip end proximate the outer ring, wherein the leaves are separated by a notch area. There is a lagoon interiorly disposed about the inner ring. At least one feed is coupled to at least one throat end. A lower horizontal loop couples each leaf tip and forms the outer ring. In addition, a plurality of slots separates each of the notch antennas.
