Abstract
The present application describes a method of forming a flexible dipole antenna. The method includes a step of surrounding an outer jacket of a cable with a lower limit radiating element. The lower limit radiating element includes a first annular surface opposite a second annular surface with a hollow body disposed therebetween joining the first and second annular surfaces together. Each of the first and second annular surfaces has a diameter greater than a diameter of the outer jacket of the cable. The method also includes a step of extending a bandwidth of the flexible dipole antenna by indirectly surrounding the lower limit radiating element with a higher limit radiating element. The higher limit radiating element has a length approximately 30% less than a length of the lower limit radiating element, allowing the higher limit radiating element to capture frequencies greater than those captured by the lower limit radiating element.
