Abstract

This paper presents the manufacturing of a patch antenna using an advanced 3D printing technology called lights-out digital additive manufacturing (LDM). This 3D LDM printing technology is mainly used for printing circuit boards (PCBs); however, it has also been used to print a patch antenna from conductive (CI) and dielectric ink (DI). This 3D LDM-printed antenna was compared with antennas on different dielectric substrates (Arlon 25N and FR4). The obtained results are compared and analyzed in this paper.
Keywords: printed patch antenna; 3D printing; LMD technology printed patch antenna; 3D printing; LMD technology
