Abstract

See full text

A shared aperture, multifunction conformable antenna has a spiral-mode microstrip (SMM) antenna portion having a spacer for maintaining the SMM antenna in spaced relationship to a ground plane, with dielectric material therebetween. The SMM antenna portion is substantially surrounded by a loop antenna which is spaced therefrom and which is electrically connected to the spiral-mode portion by a high frequency choke to block FM broadcast band signals from the SMM antenna. An AM-broadcast-band-blocking capacitor functions to route AM signals to the SMM antenna portion. The spiral-mode antenna receives signals at frequencies above 300 MHz, the loop antenna receives signals in the FM band, and both the loop antenna and the spiral-mode antenna receive signals in the AM band.
