Abstract: Technologies directed to cylindrical antenna structures. One metallic cylindrical antenna structure includes a first surface, a second surface, and a side wall with a first height. The cylindrical antenna structure can have a low profile with the first height being less than 20 millimeters (mm). The side wall includes first and second slots, the first being centered at a first point on the side wall at a second height and oriented longitudinally along an azimuthal direction of the cylindrical antenna structure and the second being centered at a second point on the side wall at the second height and oriented longitudinally along the azimuthal direction. A feed structure is located on the center axis and is physically separated from the first and second surfaces. The cylindrical antenna structure radiates electromagnetic energy in an omnidirectional radiation pattern, responsive to a radio frequency (RF) signal being applied to the feed structure.
