There is no gain in any antenna.
There you go again, contradicting Balanas, Kraus, Jasik, Terman,
et al. From Balanis: "Absolute gain of an antenna (in a given
direction) is defined as "the ratio of the intensity, in a given
direction, to the intensity that would be obtained if the power
accepted by the antenna were radiated isotropically."
This is the exact definition of antenna gain given in the IEEE
Dictionary.
Balanis goes on to give ten equations for gain in the next two
pages.
