ANTENNAS MADE OF CARBON FIBRE REINFORCED PLASTIC MATERIAL

摘要

Canadian Abridgement The invention provides an antenna having a large area reflector formed of a plurality of conductive slats of carbon fibre re-inforced plastics material having air gaps therebetween. The slats are mounted on a supporting and shaping framwork which is of like material. The supporting and shaping framework is carried on a support structure of aluminium and between the aluminium and the support structure and the carbon fibre re-inforced plastics material of the supporting and shaping framework is provided the intermediary material (e.g. titanium or stainless steel) provided to reduce the effects of electrolytic corrosion.
