Abstract
Inflatable antennas have been extensively researched for years.
- NASA’s Inflatable Antenna Experiment (1996)
- Cubic’s Ground Antenna Transmit and Receive (GATR) (2008)
The inflatable antenna presented here is unlike many inflatable antennas.
- Omni-directional
- Miniature
- Single-band (2.4 GHz)
- Folds
The design may be useful for consumers.
- Increased Wi-Fi / Bluetooth range on computers
- Efficient design reduces cost
