Abstract
A broadband mesh antenna and a phased array broadband mesh antenna are provided. The antenna of the present invention is a mesh antenna system that may be implemented with printed circuit board technology and wired technology that operates with increased bandwidth. The mesh antenna system provides for a single mesh antenna to operate at a wide range of frequencies. The antenna may be employed as a high efficient broadband antenna for rockets, space vehicles and ships when placed inside a metallic open box.
