3D printed lattice structure for lightweight Ka‐band phased array antenna
Abstract Here a lightweight antenna array is designed and fabricated for a Ka‐band phased array antenna. From the perspective of advanced space‐borne engineering practice, a Kagome lattice structure is proposed for the lightweight antenna array applications and the representative configurations of t...

Abstract Here a lightweight antenna array is designed and fabricated for a Ka‐band phased array antenna.

Experiment is performed to estimate the electrical performance with the featured structure. Compared with the conventional antenna array, the proposed one has 69% less weight, identical measured radiation patterns, and good electrical performance.
