An antenna for a ground-penetration radar system is disclosed. The antenna has a housing that defines a cavity. A radiator is located on a surface of a planar substrate within the cavity. A wear-block is located between the radiator and the opening to the cavity for providing mechanical protection to the radiator. An absorber assembly is located on an opposite side of the radiator from the opening. The absorber assembly comprises a microwave absorber and a first dielectric layer. The first dielectric layer is located between the radiator and the microwave absorber.

An antenna substrate includes: a first substrate including an antenna pattern disposed on an upper surface of the first substrate; a second substrate having a first planar surface, an area of which is smaller than an area of a planar surface of the first substrate; and a flexible substrate connecting the first and second substrates to each other and bent to allow the first planar surface of the second substrate to face a side surface of the first substrate, which is perpendicular to the upper surface of the first substrate.

A device includes a ground plane electrically connected to a proximal end of at least one conductive pillar and an antenna pad substantially parallel to the ground plane, wherein the antenna pad is separated from a distal end of the at least one conductive pillar by a dielectric pad having a first dielectric constant, wherein the ground plane, the at least one conductive pillar, and the dielectric pad surround an antenna cavity filled with a dielectric fill material having a second dielectric constant different from the first dielectric constant.

A header for an implantable medical device includes at least an antenna and a receptacle for receiving a signal transmission line. Either one or a combination of the antenna and the receptacle are encased in a dielectric material. The dielectric material can be one of or include one of a polymer, a ceramic material, polyoxymethylene, polysulfone, polybutylene terephthalate. A medical device and a method for assembling a medical device are also provided.

An eyewear device that includes a lens; a support structure adapted to be worn on the head of a user, the support structure including a rim configured to support the lens in a viewing area visible to the user when wearing the support structure; an antenna embedded into or forming part of the support structure, the antenna at least partially extending into the rim; a transceiver adapter to send and receive signals; and a tuner coupled between the transceiver and the antenna, the tuner adapted to match impedance between the antenna and the transceiver to improve power transfer.

A radome and a method for manufacturing same. A radome apparatus (10) has a radome body (12) having an aperture (14), a film (16) covering the aperture, and a support (18) installed into the aperture. The film and the support have a low loss at a desired operating frequency. The support provides backing, support, and rigidity for the film so that distortion of the film by weather conditions, such as wind, is reduced. Thus, the integrity of the RF transmission characteristics of the radome are preserved. The aperture, film, and support are in the boresight of an antenna (20, 28) and are large enough to accommodate a desired beam steering range. The radome body may be manufactured with the aperture and the film included therein by using an in-mold labeling process. The support may be installed in the aperture by a subsequent molding process.

A sensor module includes: a metal member having a recessed portion; a resin portion embedded within the recessed portion; a radiator provided within the resin portion and configured to emit radio waves; a wireless communication portion provided within the resin portion and connected to the radiator; and a sensor connected to the wireless communication portion, wherein the metal member is insulated from the radiator by the resin portion and functions as a parasitic element.
