Abstract
An antenna assembly and a method for mounting an antenna element in full conformity to a substantially curved surface are disclosed. The method includes the steps of providing a first, relatively thin dielectric substrate portion having an antenna element formed on a surface thereof; providing a second, relatively thick dielectric substrate portion; shaping and securing the second substrate portion to the curved surface; and shaping and securing the first substrate portion and the antenna element to the second substrate portion. The method permits a microstrip antenna, or other thin structure supported on a substrate, to be mounted to curved surfaces of even short radius or curvature (e.g., less than four inches) in full conformity therewith without damaging the thin fragile antenna element.
