French term or phrase: antenne élémentaire

LGDT suggests that an antenne élémentaire is the same thing as a dipole, but I think I need another term here.
Any ideas?

elementary antenna?


Explanation:
Certainly gets lots of ghits!

By means of a particular radio-electric circuitry for the suppression of anyone of the two branches of a ½ of wavelength open dipole, I have demontrated, once and for all, that the open dipole is not an elementary antenna (by definition an elementary antenna is an aerial where the condition of resonance and radiation cannot take place without the presence of all its parts) but it is, instead, an "elementary array" of 2 elements, of a physical length equal to ¼ of a wavelength each, which are electrically arranged in a counterphase, while being fed in the middle of them.
