A volumetrically compact and efficient antenna, with a high radiation resistance and low losses, that can be designed for any frequency, and which has a gain within 1 dB of that of a full-sized vertical monopole radiator or, in its horizontally polarized form, within 2 dB of that of a horizontally polarized half-wave dipole. One embodiment is a rectangle, with short radiators and long interconnecting wires, which has been folded back on itself in a manner that results in a square configuration (when viewed from the top) and brings the two radiating wires into close proximity. Only a single port need be fed. Linear loading sections, such as stubs, serrations and helically wound interconnecting wires can be used to electrically lengthen the antenna, while keeping physical dimensions small. Capacitive loading sections are also used. Two unequal-sized rectangular loops may be joined onto each other, to provide an additional radiating element.
