The teachings of the present application generally provide a solution to one or more of the aforementioned needs by providing for a ultra-high frequency (UHF) antenna assembly which provides for a smaller package size with the same or better efficiency as a much larger antenna, particularly at 100 MHz to 500 MHz. Particularly, through the combination of components and structures for implementing frequency selective surfaces (FSS) and high impedance structures (HIS) in combination with an anisotropic magneto-dielectric material, the present teachings provide for the use of both lower and higher frequency techniques at 200 MHz to 400 MHz frequency range and miniaturization, accurately improving the performance of UHF satellite communication antennas. Specifically improving performance in narrowband, with increases in efficiency, bandwidth, and lowered elevation angle radiation characteristics.
