Tetrahedral Origami Antenna

It is made from standard paper glued to thin copper sheets. The resulted material is 0.25 mm thick, and is folded into water bomb bases, which interlock with each other, forming a tetrahedron. There is also a reflector and two strip detectors, both of which are attached to one side of the tetrahedron. The antenna achieves a peak gain of 9.6dBi at 2.6 GHz with an impedance bandwidth of 66% (2-4 GHz).
