Abstract
A broadband single-feed compact circularly polarized stacked microstrip antenna for radio frequency identification (RFID) reader applications is proposed and investigated. The proposed antenna achieved a gain of more than 5.0 dBic, impedance bandwidth with VSWR less than 2 and a wide 3-dB axial-ratio (AR) bandwidth of more than 12% over ultra-high frequency (UHF) band (840 - 940 MHz). The overall antenna size is 0.48λo x 0.48λo x 0.0984λo at 900 MHz. The proposed antenna is attractive for RFID reader applications which require compact size and good circular polarization operation.
