Abstract
A broadband planar dipole, radiating from 280 to 1000 MHz (with Gain > 0 dBi), is considered for shape optimization using splines. It is demonstrated via simulations and measurements that the 0 dBi gain point is shifted to 190 MHz (32% size reduction). The entire optimization amounts to antenna reshaping.Keywords
