Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for providing a broadband antenna are provided. The antenna can include a current sheet array having a plurality of elements. Each of the elements includes dipole arms. The dipole arms can be configured as first and second dipole arm pairs for transmitting or receiving signals of different polarizations. Capacitive structures are provided between adjacent branch portions of the dipole arms. The capacitive structures extend from a first side of a substrate on which the dipole arms are located towards a second side of the substrate.
