Abstract

A new feed system is presented for improving the quality and bandwidth of circularly polarised stacked microstrip antennas (CPSMAs). The feed system consists of a microstrip line and a via (or pin) from the microstrip line to a driven patch. A systematic design process to achieve near-optimal CP performance from these antennas is presented. An example design demonstrated a measured 3dB axial-ratio (AR) bandwidth of 17 and a measured 10dB return bandwidth of 35. The measured gain is more than 8dBic over the 3dB AR bandwidth. The total height of the antenna is 8.536mm or 0.156λ_o at 5.5GHz. The new feed system is found to be very useful for the design of wideband, compact, low-cost, CP microstrip antennas and arrays.
