Abstract
An electronics unit for wireless transfer of signals, includes an antenna part, an electronics part, and a transmission circuit part. The electronics part is placed on a laminate with at least one substrate layer of a dielectric material. The substrate layer is made of a flexible material and forms a continuous unit, including a first part which supports the electronics part, a second part which supports the antenna part, and a third part which supports the transmission circuit part. The second part of the substrate is formed to shape a convex surface, which supports groups of at least one antenna element. Since the surface is curved, the groups cover different directions.
