Abstract

A novel miniature antenna loaded with a space‐filling shaped transmission line is presented. Return loss and antenna gain results are compared with a traditional square patch. Experimental results show that the antenna presents an electrical area 18 times less than the square patch. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
