BW Enhancement Using Chip resistor loading

This method increases the bandwidth of the antenna by decreasing the quality factor. This method is used by itself or in conjunction with other methods in order to miniaturize the antenna also. Thus this method strives to achieve the two main goals for microstrip elements – bandwidth enhancement and miniaturization. Chip Resistor is basically a kind of low resistance short.

Is this really a good idea? resistors dissipate power, converting antenna signal power into heat. Seems not a good way to increase bandwidth. Increasing the volume by increasing the distance seems the better way.
