    Abstract: A wireless communications module includes: a primary board including (i) a first surface bearing a radio controller, and defining a set of control contacts for connection to respective ports of the radio controller, and (ii) a second surface opposite the first surface; an antenna array integrated with the primary board, the antenna array including a plurality of unit cells each having: an inverted-L antenna having a planar element adjacent to the second surface of the primary board, and an orthogonal element extending from the planar element to a feed layer within the primary board; and a passive patch element between the planar element and the feed layer.

    Abstract: A broadband phased array antenna system is set forth comprising a support member; an antenna array mounted to the support member, the antenna array having a plurality of uniformly excited hybrid radiating elements arranged in a symmetric array on a substrate; a baseband controller mounted to the support member; a radio controller mounted to the support member for modulating and demodulating signals between the baseband controller and antenna array; and a communications interface for removably connecting and disconnecting the antenna system. In one aspect, the antenna array comprises a substrate; a plurality of uniformly excited hybrid radiating elements arranged in a symmetric array on the substrate; a hybrid feeding network for transmitting RF-signals to the hybrid radiating elements; and artificial materials surrounding opposite sides of the symmetric array for suppressing edge scattered fields and increasing gain of the antenna system.
