1. A multifrequency antenna structure comprising:
- a microstrip patch first antenna (10, 11,
12) including a radiating surface (10) and a ground plane (11) and operating at one frequency, and a separately fed, wire type, dipole, second antenna (17) disposed in front of the first antenna radiating surface and said ground plane, and operating at a second different frequency, and wherein the first antenna (10, 11,
12) comprises a dielectric substrate (12) on said ground plane (11) and a metal top conductor (10) deposited on said dielectric substrate forming said radiating surface, a through hole passes through said dielectric substrate and the center of symmetry of said metal top conductor, a feedine for said wire type, dipole, second antenna passes through said first antenna via said through hole (15) and wherein the ground plane (11) of the first antenna is parallel to said second antenna.
