Antenna for sending and/or receiving electromagnetic signals

Abstract

An antenna for sending and/or receiving electromagnetic signals and a method for using an antenna for sending and/or receiving electromagnetic signals. The antenna comprises an electrically conducting ground structure extending along a plane; a first structure forming a radiator, being electrically conducting; a second structure, being electrically conducting; and a feed point for connecting the antenna with a signal line. A first end of the first structure and a first end of the second structure are in electrical contact with each other at the feed point. Further, the ground structure is separated from the feed point by a gap and a second end of the second structure is connected to the ground structure. The second structure comprises a bending portion such that the second structure together with a portion of the ground structure surround an area when seen from a direction orthogonal to the plane of the ground structure.
