ABSTRACT:
The antenna includes a substrate, such as a dielectric material, and an electrically conductive circular ring on the substrate and having an outer diameter and an inner diameter concentrically arranged. The outer diameter is less than 1/10 an operating wavelength, and preferably about 1/20th, so that the antenna is electrically small relative to the wavelength. The inner diameter is in a range of π/6 to π/2 times the outer diameter, and preferably is π/4 times the outer diameter to enhance the gain relative to its area.
