Abstract : The most challenging thing in the real world is communicating with aircraft, even though several communication technologies have been adopted for tracking and monitoring the aircraft there is no cent per cent efficiency, for the implementation of a conformal antenna for transmission and reception of the signal is preferred. In radio communication and avionics, a conformal antenna or conformal array is a flat radio antenna which is designed to conform to or follow some prescribed shape, for example, a curved conformal antenna is designed and is mounted on or embedded in a curved surface. The conformal antenna is a collection of a large number of smaller antennas (PAA) each one is connected to a phase shifter. The phased array antenna will have high directivity in the desired application. Conformal arrays are typically limited to high frequencies in the UHF or microwave range, where the wavelength of the waves is small enough that small antennas can be used. The main objective of this project is to embed this conformal antenna on the surface of the aircraft with increased gain. To implement the above-mentioned problem we are using CST microwave software. Conventional methods now used in aircraft are done by using the conformal antenna to save space and even military applications to be anonymous. The antenna stands to be an interface between the transmitter and the receiver. By working on the software and hardware features of antennas we can develop an antenna with better gain. By adopting better gain, the antenna will be more efficient. Thus by implementing this conformal antenna on the aircraft surface with an increased gain high degree of accuracy, clarity and effective communication link can be achieved.
