Abstract
A low-profile antenna comprising upper and lower sets of conductive arms capacitively loaded by upper and lower conductive rings respectively connected to distal ends of the upper and lower sets of conductive arms. The upper and lower conductive arms have edges that conform to prolate ellipsoid dome shapes that each have a major axis that aligns with a center axis. The upper and lower conductive arms converge at an upper hub and a lower hub at crowns of the prolate ellipsoid dome shapes, which have interiors that are substantially filled with RF-absorbing material. The upper and lower hubs are separated by an air gap.
