  • Abstract
    In this paper, two new techniques for constructing a hi-lo stacked patch antenna are investigated, where the foam substrate is created using a layer of ECCOSTOCK FPH high temperature foam-in-place liquid. The aim is to be able to fabricate this low permittivity layer to a nominal thickness to act as a dielectric material for the antenna.
