Fused filament fabrication additive manufacturing and characterisation at Loughborough University for RF applications

This paper discusses the research related to 3D printed radiofrequency (RF) devices, using fused filament fabrication, carried out at Loughborough University. Different multidisciplinary aspects include the ability to 3D print unique shapes, the ability to tailor the infill to make functionally graded and heterogeneous substrates, characterizing the dielectric properties and how these materials can be used for antennas and other RF designs.
