title = "Switched diversity antennas characterized by a coverage probability parameter",
abstract = "A new characteristic parameter for switched diversity antennas is introduced. The coverage probability parameter describes the capability of a switched diversity antenna system to receive {"}above threshold{"} an arbitrary linear polarized wave coming from an arbitrary direction. A number of generic antennas, as well as diversity antennas from the literature, are compared in terms of size, bandwidth, and {"}coverage{"} as described by the new parameter. A new diversity antenna based on loaded dipoles is proposed and is shown to outperform existing antennas in many regards.",
