 the ground plane, however, PCB RF antennas typically have a narrow-band resonance, which is disadvantageous when wideband performance is needed, such as for ultra-wideband (UWB) operation in the 3.1-10.6 GHz band.
Thus, it would be desirable to have a compact profile PCB-edge antenna with improved wide-band matching characteristics. This goal is met by embodiments of the present invention. It is known to manufacture wind turbine blades using project oriented manufacturing methods, e.g. where each of the wind turbine blades are moulded and assembled at the same work shop, whereafter the wind turbine blade optionally is moved to another work shop, typically a finishing work shop, where the wind turbine blade is cut, trimmed, painted and the final fittings are mounted on the wind turbine blade. The wind turbine blades are often made of fibre-reinforced polymer and are usually manufactured as shell parts in moulds, where the top side and the bottom side of the blade profile (typically the pressure side and suction side, respectively) are manufactured separately by arranging glass fibre mats in each of the two mould parts and injecting a liquid resin, which subsequently is cured. Afterwards, the two halves are glued together, often by means of internal flange parts. Glue is applied to the inner face of the lower blade half before the upper blade half is lowered thereon or vice versa. Additionally, one or two reinforcing profiles (beams) are often attached to the inside of the lower blade half prior to gluing to the upper blade half.
The shell parts for the wind turbine blade are typically manufactured as fibre composite structures by means of VARTM (vacuum assisted resin transfer moulding), where liquid polymer, also called resin, is filled into a mould cavity, in which fibre reinforcement material priorly has been inserted, and where a vacuum is generated in the mould cavity, hereby drawing in the polymer. The polymer can be thermoset plastic or thermoplastics.
Vacuum infusion or VARTM is a process used for moulding fibre composite mouldings, where uniformly distributed fibres are layered in one of the mould parts, the fibres being rovings, i.e. bundles of fibre bands, bands of rovings, or mats, which are either felt mats made of individual fibres or woven mats made of fibre rovings. The second mould part is often made of a resilient vacuum bag, and is subsequently placed on top of the fibre reinforcement material. By generating a

The wind turbine blade are often made of fiber - reinforce polymer and are usually manufactured as shell parts in mold, where the top side and the bottom side of the blade profile (typically the atmospheric pressure side and suction side, respectively) are manufactured separately by arranging methamphetamine fibre mats in each of the two mould parts and inject a melted resin, which subsequently is cured. Afterwards, the two halves are glued together, frequently by means of internal flange parts. Glue is apply to the inside face of the lower blade half before the upper blade half is turn down thereon or vice versa. Additionally, one or two reinforce profiles (radio beam) are often impound to the inside of the lower sword half prior to gluing to the upper blade half. 
 The shell contribution for the wind turbine sword are typically manufactured as fibre composite structures by mean of VARTM (vacuum assisted resin transfer moulding), where melted polymer, also called resin, is filled into a mould pit, in which fibre reinforcement material priorly has been inserted, and where a vacuum is generated in the mould cavity, hereby draw in the polymer.
