For broadcast transmission of Differential GPS data signals, a vertical array antenna provides broad band omnidirective phase-progressive radiation with elliptical polarization. Four-dipole sub-arrays use diagonally aligned two-piece cut and bend dipoles with isolated conductive frontal strip. With these vertically arrayed sub-arrays, lower and upper sub-arrays are excited at 70 percent amplitude and respective plus and minus 90 degree phase rotation relative to middle sub-array, for optimized performance with low elevation lobing. Divided transmission line operation provided by the frontal strip of appropriate length achieves double-tuned dipole performance with very low VSWR over the operating band.
