Abstract :
This paper focuses on the excitation of multiple radiating elements such as dipoles. We demonstrated that it is possible to realize a compact excitation device over epoxy substrate without using more space that the antenna offers itself. These results allow isotropic, compact and low-cost antennas to be created. More compact size device are possible with high permittivity substrates. This kind of antenna would be used in most applications operating at the 2.4 GHz band such as RFID, Bluetooth or Wifi
