Abstract

A self-supporting radome construction is formed from a random distribution of four basic structural elements assembled in a standard reoccurring pattern. The elements define four basic triangular openings. Each triangular opening is covered with a panel, and only four panel sizes are required whether or not the interior surface is the same or different than the exterior surface.
