Abstract

See full text

An RF antenna system is disclosed having at least one meandering antenna line with an aggregate structure formed to substantially extend in two dimensions, to effectively form a top-loaded monopole antenna. The meandering antenna line includes at least one localized bend for providing a compressed effective antenna length in a compact package. The present antenna can be made as an antenna system having discrete transmit and receive antenna lines, so as to form a dual antenna system. The localized bends on each line electromagnetically couple with the respective bends on the other line, thus increasing electromagnetic coupling efficiency, thereby increasing antenna bandwidth and gain.
