Abstract
Antenna structures can include an additively manufactured engineered fingerprint (AMEF). AMEF antenna features facilitate individual or type classification of an unknown source antenna. As described herein, physical features can be included in an additively manufactured antenna to facilitate source identification, such as without sacrificing antenna performance. In general, AMEF techniques can improve physical layer security, such as without dramatically increasing production cost or decreasing production throughput, as compared to other approaches.
