Antenna Technology
EngeniusMicro develops a broad portfolio of advanced antenna technologies spanning multiple bands, form factors, and fabrication methods. From 3D-printed and conformal designs to size-reducing magnetodielectric and metamaterial approaches, our antennas are engineered to meet the demanding size, weight, power, and performance requirements of DoD platforms operating across contested and space-constrained environments.
3D-Printed Antenna Technology
Additive manufacturing enables antenna geometries and integration options that conventional fabrication can’t easily achieve. Our 3D-printed antenna work spans:
- Multiple antenna bands (L, S, C, Ku)
- Multiple feeds and multiple polarizations
- Fully three-dimensional antenna structures
- Printed connectors
- Flexible and wearable antennas
- Antenna arrays
- Conformal antennas fabricated using multiple methods, designed to integrate directly onto curved or non-planar platform surfaces
Magnetodielectric Antenna Technology
For long-wavelength applications where size is the limiting factor, we use high-permeability magnetodielectric composites to shrink antennas that would otherwise be impractically large:
- Dielectric loading with high-permeability magnetodielectric composites to reduce the size of long-wavelength antennas
- Up to a 6x reduction in antenna size across LF, HF, VHF, and UHF
Metamaterial Antenna Technology
Engineered metamaterial structures give designers control over bandwidth, response, and reconfigurability beyond what conventional materials allow:
- Coverage across L, S, C, X, Ku, and Ka bands
- Broadband and multi-band response
- Planar and printed construction
- Used directly as antennas or as superstrates to enhance the performance of other antennas
- Reconfigurable designs
Foldable Antenna Technology
Foldable designs address the challenge of fielding large apertures where stowage and transport are constrained:
- Reduced SWaP for stowing and transporting large antennas
- Primarily built around reconfigurable reflectarray antenna technology, with other foldable types possible
- Potential for larger-aperture and high-power-handling antennas
