  • Abstract
    An antenna composed of a fed metaloop and a parasitic metaloop is presented. The antenna characteristics for this double metaloop, including the radiation pattern, axial ratio, gain, and VSWR, are compared with those for a single metaloop where the parasitic metaloop is removed. The double metaloop antenna has a smaller cross-polarized radiation component than the single metaloop, leading to a wider axial ratio bandwidth of 20.6%.
