Abstract
Antennas, systems and methods may be implemented using a feed network with optional balanced to unbalanced conductor (balun) structure printed on one or more varying surfaces (e.g., sides, faces, etc.) of antenna substrates of various shapes including, but not limited to, flat, cylindrical, hemispherical and conical-shaped antenna substrates. Both antenna element/s and feed network/s may be printed onto one or more varying surfaces of a single common antenna substrate, such as printed onto both interior and exterior surfaces of the same hollow antenna substrate.
