Abstract
According to various aspects, exemplary embodiments are disclosed of antennas, which may be configured to be low profile, ultra-wideband, and/or omnidirectional. In an exemplary embodiment, an antenna may be low profile and may be configured to be operable omnidirectionally within an ultra-wideband frequency range including frequencies from about 350 megahertz to about 6000 MHz. The antenna may include a printed circuit board (PCB) having a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The first side of the PCB may include a radiating element, a first patch with an additional radiating arm, a shorting line, a stub along the shorting line, and a microstrip line. The second side of the PCB may include a ground plane and a second patch.
