Abstract

This paper reports an overview on the on-going research activity aimed at the exploitation of 3D-printing technologies to the development of dual-band and dual-polarization components for SatCom antenna feed chains. In particular, architectures optimized for 3D-printing are discussed, and the results of a preliminary study on the application of perforations along the internal channels is reported.
