Antenna array and method for manufacturing thereof

A method for manufacturing an antenna array, comprising:

• obtaining a printed circuit board laminate comprising a flexible substrate layer comprising a feed network attached on a rigid substrate layer;
• dividing the rigid substrate layer into portions specific to one or more radiating antenna elements such that the radiating antenna elements are configured movable between a first arrangement of the portions of the rigid substrate layer, where the radiating antenna elements are coplanar, and a second arrangement of the portions of the rigid substrate layer, where at least two of the radiating antenna elements are non-planar with respect to each other and wherein the radiating antenna elements are connected to one or more neighboring antenna elements by the flexible substrate and the portions of the rigid substrate layer are separated by spacers or grooves between at least some adjacent radiating antenna elements that provide moving said adjacent radiating antenna elements between the arrangements;
• and
• installing one or more active or passive electrical components on the flexible substrate layer for feeding at least one of radio frequency signals, control signals and voltage for the antenna elements.
