The antenna comprises a half\u2010wavelength bow\u2010tie\u2010shaped dipole, an elongated magnetic loop and a ground reflector with four Elevated Ground Planes (EGPs) at reflector's corners. The EGPs enhance the antenna gain and Front\u2010to\u2010Back Ratio (FBR), which is a promising technique in the MED antenna design. The antenna is excited by a \u2010shaped coupling element. An analytical model of the proposed antenna is developed by employing Schelkunoff's model for dipole antennas and the transmission line theory complemented by radiation resistance corrections. The antenna design is validated with full\u2010wave numerical simulations. The antenna is fabricated using cut and bent metallic plates and tested in an anechoic chamber. The analytical, numerical and experimental results are in a good agreement. The experimental results confirm that the proposed MED antenna with dimensions of  achieves a bandwidth of 61.53% (623.1\u20131176.8\u00a0MHz) for  and a stable gain of 9.8  1.9 dBi. By employing the EGPs, the realized peak gain and FBR are enhanced by 0.52 dBi and 1.1\u00a0dB, respectively.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1029\/2024rs008037","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,19]],"date-time":"2024-11-19T13:50:09Z","timestamp":1732024209000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Modeling and Design of Improved\u2010Gain Wideband Magneto\u2010Electric Dipole Antenna for Micro\u2010BTS Applications"],"prefix":"10.1029","volume":"59","author":[{"given":"Zhale","family":"Amiri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering Urmia University  Urmia Iran"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7584-0504","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Keivan","family":"Kaboutari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Telecomunica\u00e7\u00f5es and Department of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics University of Aveiro  Aveiro Portugal"}]},{"given":"Changiz","family":"Ghobadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering Urmia University  Urmia Iran"}]},{"given":"Javad","family":"Nourinia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering Urmia University  Urmia Iran"}]},{"given":"Majid","family":"Shokri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering Urmia University  Urmia Iran"}]},{"given":"Stanislav","family":"Maslovski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Telecomunica\u00e7\u00f5es and Department of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics University of Aveiro  Aveiro Portugal"}]}],"member":"13","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/LAWP.2022.3225862"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2023\/8847440"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/T\u2010AP.1954.27983"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/LAWP.2016.2519942"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ACCESS.2019.2896356"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TAP.2012.2186260"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/LAWP.2013.2244054"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TAP.2013.2276924"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ACCESS.2016.2615947"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TAP.2014.2327653"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/EUMA.1975.332206"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mop.11232"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/MAP.2021.3089983"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5281\/zenodo.13750545"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/PIERS59004.2023.10221341"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/PIERS59004.2023.10221496"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/iceaa61917.2024.10702015"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/srep12956"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TAP.2016.2575980"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TAP.2016.2599176"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/LAWP.2023.3244031"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/LAWP.2018.2864604"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_8_24_1","first-page":"35","article-title":"A new wideband unidirectional antenna element","volume":"1","author":"Luk K.","year":"2006","journal-title":"International Journal of Microwave and Optical Technology"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/JPROC.2012.2187039"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_26_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mmce.22728"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_27_1","volume-title":"Inductance: Loop and partial","author":"Paul C.","year":"2011"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_28_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.aeue.2017.06.028"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_29_1","volume-title":"Antennas: Theory and practice.
