Abstract
A doubly conformal AESA includes circuit cards with first and second printed circuit board (PCB) sections. The first PCB sections include radiating elements which define linear arrays which are disposed on a curved surface, or a first curve of the doubly conformal AESA. The second PCB sections include transmit/receive modules which control the radiating elements. The circuit cards may include flex-rigid connections which connect the first PCB sections and the second PCB sections, thereby defining a second curve of the doubly conformal AESA. The circuit cards may also be connected to a backplane via angled array, thereby defining the second curve of the doubly conformal AESA.
