A stacked, shorted double C-patch antenna (100) has gap-coupled parasitic elements (102a, 106a, 102b, 106b) and one directly fed antenna element (104a). A second fed element (104b) is conductively fed from the directly fed element. The antenna has a truncated ground plane (108) and a bandwidth that is equal to or greater than approximately 70 MHz at a frequency of approximately 850 MHz. The directly fed antenna element is conductively coupled to a transmitter and to a receiver of a communications device, such as a cellular telephone.
