Popis: A self-structuring antenna (SSA) responds to changes in its operating environment by changing its electrical shape. Existing variants of the SSA show great promise for tuning across wide bands and for self-healing when subject to damage. However, their ability to steer the main beam of radiation to a chosen direction has, so far, been limited.
