Abstract

An antenna structure is disclosed that includes a dipole antenna and a slot antenna extending along a first axis. The dipole antenna and the slot antenna each have a radiation pattern that is omni-directional in an azimuth plane of the Earth. The dipole antenna radiates vertically polarized electric field, and the slot antenna radiates a horizontally polarized electric field.
