Abstract
Flexibility in phased antenna arrays open the world of new applications. Such arrays can conform to different shapes while ensuring performance in harsh conditions. The purpose of this study is to perform a detailed comparative analysis of numerous studies of flexible phased antenna arrays. This work summarizes the main manufacturing techniques and the commonly used materials with their properties. It also outlines the key challenges and future trends in the development of flexible phased antenna arrays. The paper concludes with research recommendations to address the identified technical issues.
