Abstract
A compact broadband antenna having a far-field pattern similar to that of a magnetic dipole with horizontal polarisation has been designed and tested. The dimensions of this printed antenna, etched on low permittivity substrate, are 130×130 mm. The measured bandwidth, which is 52% for a VSWR of less than 2, is achieved through the utilisation of nonresonant elements
