Compact wideband multiple conductor monopole antenna
Abstract
A wideband trap-loaded monopole antenna having small structural dimensions in a plane normal to the polarization axis. The traps are resistively-terminated quarter wavelength transmission lines. The locations and anti-resonant frequencies of the traps are selected to make the antenna's input impedance and gain nominally uniform parameters with respect to frequency.
