Miniaturization of a Monopolar Wire-Plate Antenna Using Magneto-Dielectric Material

This article details a miniaturization strategy for an electrically small Monopolar Wire-Plate Antenna (MWPA) loaded by Magneto-Dielectric Material (MDM). This approach consists in multiplying the number of antenna's short-circuit wires in order to magnify the interaction with the material. A model showing the equivalence between a single-shorted MWPA and n-shorted wires is proposed to serve this strategy of miniaturization.
