The present application provides an ultra-wideband low-profile vertically polarized omnidirectional antenna, comprising a metal floor, a radiation arm, and a metal disc. The radiation arm comprises corrugated radiation arms and long straight radiation arms which are alternately arranged in a radial shape; the top of the radiation arm is fixedly connected to the metal disc; the outer ends of the corrugated radiation arms are connected to the metal floor; and the parts inside the outer ends of the corrugated radiation arms are suspended above the metal floor. According to the antenna of the present invention, the corrugated radiation arms are combined with the metal disc at the top, thereby reducing the profile height of the antenna; the long straight radiation arms can generate resonance points at high-frequency points, and the resonance points are combined with resonance points generated by the corrugated radiation arms, thereby expanding the bandwidth of the antenna; six arc-shaped grooves are etched in the metal floor, so that the radiation performance at the high-frequency points can be improved, thereby ensuring the stability of the pattern of the antenna in the whole working frequency band; and the outermost end of the metal floor is bent upwards and inwards, thereby reducing the plane size of the antenna while achieving a low profile and not affecting the performance of the antenna.
