In this antenna, only one element is excited while the others are parasitic-loaded elements. The antenna total dimensions are 231 × 122mm 2 and it has a total directivity of 11.6dBi and radiation efficiency of 46%. This antenna is significantly compact compared with others presenting the same directivity. %G English %2 https://univ-rennes.hal.science/hal-01338399/document %2 https://univ-rennes.hal.science/hal-01338399/file/MOTL-Hammoud.pdf %L hal-01338399 %U https://univ-rennes.hal.science/hal-01338399 %~ UNIV-NANTES %~ UNIV-RENNES1 %~ CNRS %~ INSA-RENNES %~ IETR %~ IETR_SRC %~ CENTRALESUPELEC %~ UR1-HAL %~ UR1-MATH-STIC %~ UR1-UFR-ISTIC %~ IETR-CUTE %~ IETR-ADH %~ TEST-UNIV-RENNES %~ TEST-UR-CSS %~ UNIV-RENNES %~ INSA-GROUPE %~ ANR %~ UR1-MATH-NUM %~ IETR-STAR %~ NANTES-UNIVERSITE %~ UNIV-NANTES-AV2022 %~ TEST3-HALCNRS
