ABSTRACT:
An antenna (10) and method for fabricating the antenna (10) includes an inner panel (12) with a curved inner receiving surface (14) and an outer panel (16) in coextensive relationship to one another. A plurality of strips (20) having undulations (22) are positioned between the inner (12) and outer (16) panels for interlocking the panels (12, 16) together in predetermined positions to define a composite antenna (10) of substantial strength to present the inner surface predetermined close tolerances over the surface thereof. The undulations (22) of the strip (20) include platform portions (24) for engaging the panels (12, 16) and straight angulated portions (26) interconnecting the platform portions (24). The strip (20) includes raised ribs (30) in the straight portions (26) and hinge portions (28) between the straight portions (26) and platform portions (24) to allow the lateral extent of the strip (20) to increase as the thickness of the strip (20) between the panels (12, 16) is decreased during fabrication.
