Abstract (en)

A microstrip antenna (100) has a patch radiator (30) and parasitic elements (32, 34, 36) and is flush-mounted and conforming to the side of a guided missile. The antenna (100) produces an antenna beam which is tilted in a required direction, so that the antenna serves as a link or fuse antenna, by the presence of the elements (32, 34, 36) which direct the beam away from the antenna normal to the desired direction. The parasitic elements include a reflector (32) and one or more directors (34, 36).
