Abstract
Disclosed are aspects of an antenna including a body having a convex surface. A conductive structure is deposited onto an antenna region of the convex surface. The conductive structure is configured as a conformal slot antenna array. The antenna region of the convex surface includes corrugations having peaks and valleys. A plurality of slots of the conformal slot antenna array are located at the peaks and the valleys of the convex surface.
