Abstract
Applied is a folding procedure to the conductor of a wideband triangular/flared printed monopole to yield an electrically smaller radiator that does not significantly compromise the gain or the return loss bandwidth of the antenna. The technique is useful for applications where the volume for the radiator is constrained. A theoretical and experimental investigation of the antenna is given.
