Helix-Loaded Meandered Loxodromic Spiral Antenna: 9,748,640

Abstract: 

An antenna element having a metal pattern with a three-dimensional profile. The metal pattern is at least one helix-loaded helix-loaded meandered loxodromic spiral. The profile is generally that of a domed top adjoined to a rotationally symmetric body such as a conical section.
