Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a broadband antenna are disclosed. The antenna can include a current sheet array having a plurality of antenna elements. Each antenna element includes dipole arms. The dipole arms can be configured as first and second dipole arm pairs for transmitting or receiving signals of different polarizations. A resistive-capacitive (RC) loading structure is provided for each antenna element, in a layer between the antenna elements and a surface of an antenna substrate. Each RC loading structure includes a set of conductive surfaces and a set of resistive surfaces. A dielectric layer separates the RC loading structure elements from the dipole arms.
