A low-profile conical beam loop antenna with an electromagnetically coupled feed system.

A low-profile conical beam loop antenna with an electromagnetically coupled feed system.

The radiation characteristics of a low-profile loop antenna are evaluated using the method of moments (MoM). The loop having a circumference of approximately two wavelengths is electromagnetically coupled to a bent Feed line and radiates a circularly polarized conical beam. The frequency bandwidth f...
