Abstract
This article presents an (non-exhaustive) overview of aspects encountered during the design and realisation of highly integrated antenna frontends dedicated to satellite communication-on-the-move. This involves aspects like what are the basic requirements, how to realise the frontend with respect to the mobile platform and which manufacturing technologies to use? Typical problems encountered are discussed and examples from real life are presented to show state-of the- art solutions.
