Abstract
The disclosed antenna device may include a substrate and a uniplanar transparent conductive material on the substrate. The uniplanar transparent conductive material may include an active segment, a capacitive active segment to capacitively feed the active segment and separated from the active segment by a dummy segment, and a tuning active segment configured with dimensions to create a substantially 90-degree phase difference between electric field components of two edges the active segment when the antenna device resonates at a desired frequency. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
