Abstract: A magneto-electric dipole antenna comprising a magnetic dipole antenna portion and an electric dipole antenna portion arranged to form a complementary antenna is disclosed. The electric dipole antenna portion comprises a plurality of electric patch portions. Each electric patch portion comprises a first patch region of a first conductivity and a second patch region of a second conductivity lower than the first conductivity, and wherein the first patch region and the second patch region cooperate to define an electrical current path of the dipole antenna portion.
