Patent abstract
A low-cost compact wideband antenna (200) has two triangular-shaped arms (500 and 510) formed by winding the conductive wire into a zigzag pattern. The two arms (500 and 510) form a compact bow-tie type antenna having equivalent electrical size larger then its mechanical dimensions. Two straight wires (530 and 540) are joined to, and electrically connected between two respective largest segment ends of two zigzag structures. The compact wideband antenna (200) is hidden inside the decorative household item (210) to provide antenna having external appearance appropriate for modern home furnishing setting with improved broadband characteristic across VHF and UHF bands but without the inconvenience of the large size.
