    The number of topside shipboard antennas doubled every decade; in 1990s they were close to 200 and have no sight of stop growing (Tavik, 2005). The over-crowded present of such many topside antennas in a limited-space of littoral warfare ship has created/caused many critical, unavoidable problem like antenna blockage, electromagnetic interference, increase RCS, worsen the effective stealthy signature of combatant ships, which is stealthy-intended designed, and most of all is the maintenance costs of multiple systems, huge numbers of repair-personnel and operators (Tibbitts & Baron, 1999).
