UWB Magnetic Antennas Hans Gregory Schantz Q-Track Corporation 315 North Main Street Tennille, GA 31089 h.schantz@ Introduction: A wide variety of electric ultra-wideband (UWB) antennas have seen commercial use. A few examples of these include diamond dipoles [1], and elliptical dipoles [2]. These electric antennas tend to have relatively large electric near-fields that are prone to undesired coupling with near-by objects. Many commercial applications, however, call for UWB antennas that are less prone to near-field coupling. Magnetic antennas are well suited for these applications, because the relatively large magnetic fields tend not to couple as strongly with near-by objects. The purpose of this article is to provide a brief overview of some UWB magnetic antennas. In particular, this paper will
