Planar Circularly Polarized Microstrip Antenna with a Single Feed

Page 1005.

Abstract:

A novel circularly polarized (CP) microstrip antenna is introduced. The antenna is fed with a single coaxial probe and the structure is planar. The CP bandwidth is much larger than available single-probe microstrip antennas and the CP radiation quality is excellent over the entire upper hemisphere.
