Apparatuses, methods, and systems for a printed circuit board that includes multiple antennas, and operates to support satellite communications, are disclosed. One apparatus includes a first flat panel element. The first flat panel element includes a multilayer PCB (printed circuit board). The multilayer PCB includes a first exterior layer comprising N antenna elements, and a second exterior layer comprising N RF (radio frequency) chains operative to process the RF signals, each of the N RF chains electrically connected to a one of the N antenna elements, and N metal patches arranged in a square, wherein an air gap is located between the N metal patches and the N antenna elements, wherein dimensions, orientation, and spacing between the N metal patches and the N antenna elements are selected based on a carrier frequency, bandwidth, and directionality of the propagated RF signals.

Multiple layer printed circuit board that includes multiple antennas and supports satellite communications

Apparatuses, methods, and systems for an antenna assembly, are disclosed. One apparatus includes a multiple layer printed circuit board (PCB), a dielectric plate, and antenna elements. The PCB includes antenna excitation feed elements, wherein the antenna excitation feed elements are located on a layer of the PCB. A second surface of the dielectric plate is affixed to a first surface of PCB forming gaps adjacent each of the antenna excitation feed elements, wherein a dielectric constant of the dielectric plate, a thickness of the dielectric plate, and a thickness of the gaps are selected based on an operating frequency of wireless signals communicated through the antenna assembly, and based on RF (radio frequency) characteristics of the PCB. Each of the antenna elements are affixed to a first surface of the dielectric plate.

Tunable patch antenna array including a dielectric plate

Apparatuses, methods, and systems for a printed circuit board that includes multiple antennas, and operates to support satellite communications, are disclosed. One apparatus includes a first flat panel element. The first flat panel element includes a multilayer PCB (printed circuit board). The multilayer PCB includes a first exterior layer comprising N antenna elements, and a second exterior layer comprising N RF (radio frequency) chains operative to process the RF signals, each of the N RF chains electrically connected to a one of the N antenna elements, wherein all of a plurality of plated through hole vias of the PCB extend through the multilayer PCB from the first exterior layer to the second exterior layer, wherein vias that operate to connect control signals include extended cleanouts on layers of the multilayer PCB that do not include terminations of the control signals.
