Abstract :
Design and measured results for two X-band conformal microstrip arrays are presented. The two 4*4 arrays are built on the surface of a cylinder of small radius. They differ by the orientation of the elements relative to the cylinder axis. The measured directivities and radiation patterns are in reasonable agreement with theoretical predictions.
