The shape of an antenna can make a big difference in its performance. Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory have used shape memory alloy to construct an antenna that changes ...

How a special nitinol compound and 3D printing was used to create the shape-shifting antenna. An overview of materials and heating problems they encountered, and how they overcame them. The test ...

THE ANTENNA. This crucial component of any radio transmitting or receiving system has a history that actually predates the invention of radio itself. The first antennas were used by Princeton ...

This application note covers basic antenna design with a nice emphasis on pcb antenna designs. The types of antennas covered are great for low power applications. There seems to be little information ...
