Abstract
An antenna assembly includes a first flexible layer including a conductive ground plane on a first layer of dielectric material, and a second flexible layer including a first array of conductive patches on a second layer of dielectric material. The antenna assembly further includes a second array of conductive patches on a third layer of dielectric material. The first, second, and third flexible layers are rollable or foldable, to provide a stowed position for the antenna assembly and a deployed position for the antenna assembly. In an example, the first array of conductive patches includes at least a first patch and a second patch, and the second array of conductive patches includes at least a third patch and a fourth patch. In the deployed position, the first patch is above the third patch and the ground plane, and the second patch is above the fourth patch and the ground plane.
