  • Abstract
    A low-profile body of revolution (BOR) with a shorted parasitic ring (SPR) antenna realizes a wideband VSWR characteristic (approximately 148%). The radiation pattern is omnidirectional around the antenna axis for base station applications. It is found that a modification of the SPR by removing four areas contributes to a reduction in the cross-polarized radiation field in the azimuth plane. It is also found that, as the modification is increased, the VSWR lower band-edge frequency increases.
