Abstract
An unbalanced loop antenna of simple construction is proposed for broadband linearly polarized applications. By introducing a gap in a half loop mounted vertically over a ground plane, the bandwidth of the antenna can be substantially increased relative to its classical balanced version. The antenna presented here has a bandwidth of 30% for a maximum β10βdB return loss, and is fed directly from a coaxial cable without the need for a balun. Numerical and experimental results show that the antenna can cover the entire PCN, UMTS, and IMT2000 frequency allocations and also offer the prospect for reduced SAR. Β© 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A novel structure of broadband microstrip antennas, termed the SGMFP antenna, is proposed. It is consisted of a slot in the ground plane, a microstrip feedline supported on a substrate, a foam layer, and a patch. It can achieve broad bandwidth and high polarisation purity. By using a si
Experimental in¨estigations of the impedance characteristics of a capaciti¨ely fed square microstrip antenna are reported. The antenna structure consists of a radiating patch and a small self-complementary patch located between the radiating patch and the ground plane. The small self-complementary p
