This dielectric embedded antennas are smaller than naturally occurs and

yet
have a net gain


More correctly, they CLAIM a gain, relative to isotropic.

If the antenna is smaller than a free space antenna, then it looses capture
area.
I would be very interested to know how they recoup that.
I suspect these antennas might need some power to drive an on-board
amplifier, which means that their gain claim is bogus, and what they aren't
telling you is that the noise floor comes up also.
