A complementary antenna (e.g., wideband complementary antenna) is presented herein. A complementary antenna can include a first dipole portion, a second dipole portion, a first electrically conductive surface, and a second electrically conductive surface. The first dipole portion can include a first patch antenna portion and a second patch antenna portion. The second dipole portion can include a third patch antenna portion and a fourth patch antenna portion electrically coupled to the second patch antenna portion via a strip antenna portion. The first electrically conductive surface can be coupled to the first dipole portion and the second dipole portion via a first set of electrically conductive pins. The second electrically conductive surface can be coupled to the first electrically conductive surface via a second set of electrically conductive pins.
