  • Abstract
    A long term objective for aircraft manufacturer is the complete integration of antennas in fuselage in order to reduce the aerodynamic drag of aeronautic platforms. We propose in this paper a modelling strategy for dealing with conformal antenna coupling on aircraft at several GHz.
