Abstract :
In this paper, we present a new low-profile miniaturized vertically polarized antenna with similar dimensions as in [5] but with considerably higher gain. The antenna structure is appropriate to achieve impedance match to almost any desired input impedance between 10-100 Ohms. In what follows the topology of the antenna is presented and an equivalent circuit model for it is developed for ease of design. Its performance of the proposed antenna is compared to that of ordinary inverted F antennas and Multi-element Monopole Antenna (MMA) [5]. The proposed antenna is fabricated and measured and the measurement results show good agreement with the simulation results.
