Abstract :
Two models of low profile compact disk and sleeve loaded monopole antennas are investigated for broadband applications in the VHF/UHF range. Parametric studies of these configurations are performed by method-of-moments simulations. Optimized performance (impedance and pattern bandwidths) of these antennas is presented and compared with that of existing designs of similar size.
