abstract = "Size and bandwidth are among the most common tradeoffs in antenna design. Electrically small antennas (ESAs) suffer from low radiation resistance, high reactance, and typically narrow bandwidths. Resonant antennas offer a higher radiation resistance lower and input reactance than ESAs at the cost of a larger footprint. Shielded loops offer a compromise between bandwidth and size. We observed that S11 is minimum when the electrical length between the gap and the short from inner to outer conductor is λ/4. The frequency behavior depends on this gap position rather than the overall loop radius.",
