Abstract
Ultra-broadband thin planar antenna has a flat elliptical element and a spaced rectangular element co-planar with the elliptical element. The inner conductor of a coaxial cable connects to the elliptical element near a gap between the elements and the outer conductor of the coaxial cable connects to the rectangular element. A housing encases the elliptical and rectangular elements and the transmission line. The antenna functions electrically as an asymmetrical planar dipole having a special configuration or as an elliptical planar monopole with a co-planar finite rectangular ground plane.
