Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new way to design an efficient and very small antenna. The proposed antenna combines meander lines and a magneto-dielectric material having high refractive index and relatively low losses. The antenna gain measured (more than -5dBi) is sufficiently high for TV signal reception in the lowest UHF band around 470MHz.
