This work describes the design, fabrication, and testing of an Archimedean spiral or spiral antenna using polymer extrusion 3D printing of polycarbonate base material. The spiral antenna design was simulated using CST Microwave Studio®, and the resulting 3D printed antenna characterized in terms of return loss, directivity, and polarization. The antenna design was embedded into a 3D printed structure...
