A conformal array antenna includes a substrate and a conductive circuit. The substrate has a non-conductive roughened curved surface formed with a plurality of hook-shaped structures that are formed by blasting a plurality of particles on the substrate. The non-conductive roughened curved surface defines a plurality of spaced-apart antenna pattern regions. The conductive circuit is located in the antenna pattern regions, and includes an activation layer formed on the roughened curved surface and containing an active metal, and a first metal layer formed on the activation layer.

Circuit substrate having a circuit pattern and method for making the same

A non-deleterious method for producing a continuous conductive circuit upon a non-conductive substrate can begin with the application of a metallic base layer upon a surface of a non-conductive substrate. A circuit pattern can be created within the metallic base layer based upon a circuit design. The metallic base layer comprising the circuit pattern can be physically separated from the remainder of the metallic base layer on the non-conductive substrate. The region of the non-conductive substrate surface that encloses the circuit pattern can be called the plating region. The remainder of the non-conductive substrate surface can be called the non-plating region. A first metal layer can be added upon the metallic base layer. A second metal layer can be added upon the first metal layer of the plating region. The second metal layer can be electrically conductive and restricted from forming on the first metal layer of the non-plating region.
