Abstract
The design of a number of new antennas that radiate linearly polarized toroidal beams is described. The developed procedures are based on the use of a method of moments commercial software tool. Several numerical examples, working at WLAN communication frequencies, are derived and analyzed. Two experimental prototypes validate the numerical results
