Abstract
Historical Story
Future Advancement of Antenna Technology
07/23/122
“The evolution of antenna technology is reviewed, from the days of Marconi to the present. Various periods over which antenna technology has been revitalized are reviewed, and the various antenna
configurations developed during those periods are summarized along with so me of their respective key characteristics. The history starts at the beginning of the 20th century and the respective technologies
developed in the decades that follow are identified. Individuals that played a key role, especially dur ing the early stages of antenna technology, are identified. Future trends and needs are speculated. Key
technologies that will contribute to future advancements are identified and will be presented at the conference.”
