Abstract

Multi-frequency, low-profile, capacitively loaded magnetic dipole antennas to be used in wireless communications. Each antenna comprises one to n antenna elements and each element having one to n arms. The various antenna embodiments can cover a range of frequencies to be determined by the shape, size, and number of elements in the physical configuration of the antenna. The antenna configuration can also be adapted to expand frequency bands covered by the antenna or to fit within space restrictions dictated by specific antenna applications.
