An embedded uniform linear monopole antenna array in a wing structure of a UAV

In this work we present the design and fabrication of a linear array of printed monopole antennas embedded within the wing structure of a small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and operating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. Integration of antenna elements within UAV structures will reduce the weight and cost....

Zusammenfassung:In this work we present the design and fabrication of a linear array of printed monopole antennas embedded within the wing structure of a small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and operating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. Integration of antenna elements within UAV structures will reduce the weight and cost. Also, the use of embedded antenna arrays will increase the communication range and data throughput. A 4-element array is considered. Simulation and measurement results are shown and compared.
