Patent ID: 6873298

Claim:
An antenna, comprising: an antenna element formed of conductive loaded resin-based materials, wherein said antenna element is flat having an outer periphery and said outer periphery has a length; a bobbin core formed of said conductive loaded resin-based materials; attachment elements formed of said conductive loaded resin-based materials wherein said attachment elements attach said bobbin core to said antenna element and form electrical connections between said bobbin core and said antenna element; a length of conductive wire, having a first end and a second end, wound around said bobbin core thereby forming a number of turns of said conductive wire around said bobbin core, wherein said conductive wire has an insulating material formed thereon thereby insulating each of said turns of said conductive wire from said bobbin core and from other said turns of said conductive wire; and a center frequency related to said length of said outer periphery of said antenna element and said number of turns of said conductive wire around said bobbin core.
