Abstract :
The revolution of antennas technology is increasingly requiring strict electric characteristics of antennas that can provide ideal performance in different telecommunication systems, such as monitoring systems, mobile systems, and space technology systems. The purpose of this study is to miniaturize the standard folded dipole antenna and at the same time preserve yet further advance its electric characteristics, such as frequency range, impedance matching, physical size, etc... The proposed design will be competitive at frequencies below 150 MHz, since at higher frequencies the antenna would automatically become smaller.
