Zusammenfassung:A method of constructing fabric microwave antennas with a calendering apparatus which comprises: heating the rollers of the calendering apparatus; setting the pressure at the nip or meeting point of said rollers of said calendering apparatus; shaping antenna patches from conductive fabric; feeding at least one roll of carrier fabric to the heated rolling drums of said calendering apparatus; placing preformed conductive patches on to the carrier fabric before the carrier fabric enters said heated rolling drums of the calendering apparatus; and cutting the calendered or bonded layers of conductive and non-conductive fabric into desired shapes for incorporation into flexible structures.
