A compact circularly polarized antenna operating at 915 MHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band for biomedical implantable applications is presented and experimentally measured. The proposed antenna can be miniaturized to a large extent with the compact size of 15 × 15 × 1.27 mm3 by means of loading patches to a ring-shaped microstrip patch antenna. An impedance bandwidth of 10.6% (865–962 MHz) for reflection coefficient less than −10 dB can be obtained. Meanwhile, the simulated 3 dB axial-ratio (AR) bandwidth reaches 14 MHz. Finally, the optimized design was fabricated and tested, and the measured results agree well with simulated results.

In this article, a high gain and compact 4 × 4 circularly polarized microstrip patch antenna array is reported for the data transmission of the next-generation small satellite. The radiating element of the circularly polarized antenna array is realized by the conventional model of the patch with truncated corners. A compact two-stage sequential rotational phase feeding is adopted that broadens the operating bandwidth of the 4 × 4 array. A small stub is embedded in the sequential rotational feed, which results in better performance in terms of the S-parameters and sequential phases at the output ports than sequential rotational feed without open stub. A prototype of the array is fabricated and measured. Fulfilling the application requirements of the next-generation small satellites, the array has the left-handed circularly polarized gain of more than 12 dBic with the axial ratio level below 1.5 dB in the ±10∘ angular space with respect to the broadside direction for the whole bandwidth from 8.05 GHz to 8.25 GHz. Moreover, the left-handed circularly polarized gain varies from 15 to 15.5 dBic in the desired band. The radiation patterns are measured; both the co- and X-pol are validated.

This paper presents a short microstrip patch antenna and analyzes its characteristics in simulation and measured ways. The proposed antenna is meant to be used from 2.4 to 2.5 GHz at the resonant frequency of 2.45 GHz Industrial, Science, and Medical (ISM) spectrum. Besides, insert a diagonal slot in the main patch, and two cutting edges with V-slit gives the antenna to propagate a circular polarization pattern. The paper aims to start learning a simple C.P. patch antenna supported the basic concept of microstrip antenna theory. A single-feed C.P., truncated corners, and slit and slot methods are employed to model the antenna apart from its parametric study. The substrate material of the developed antenna is FR-4, and it's a relative permittivity of 4.4. The antenna incorporates a compact overall size of 0.389λ0 × 0.389λ0 × 0.013λ0, where λ0 is that the corresponding free-space wavelength at 2.45 GHz. FEKO has been used for not only designing the antenna model but also analyzing its performances. Simulated and measured results have reported that the antenna can work in ISM bands (2.42-2.5 GHz) with VSWR< 2, low realized gain, and the limited 3-dB axial ratio at 2.45 GHz.


The circularly polarized microstrip antenna has been of great importance in WLAN applications. A circularly polarized slotted circular patch antenna with co-axial feed geometry has been designed to meet the requirements. The antenna designed has been slotted at several locations to make it radiate circularly polarized radiation. Two metallic cylindrical vias have been inserted near the two diametric ends of the slot to improve the realized gain of the antenna. The antenna structure is resonating at 6.4 GHz with 3dB axial ratio bandwidth of 200MHz and gain of 9.8dB has been observed.


This article focuses on designing a single-feed circularly polarized equilateral triangular microstrip patch antenna. The axial ratio bandwidth of the antenna is around 190 MHz. The antenna has been etched at specific locations for achieving circular polarization. The suppression of surface waves is also being focused upon for gain enhancement. The array of cylindrical metallic pins is embedded near the radiating side of the patch antenna. The gain enhancement of around 3.23 dB is observed. The antenna is designed for use in satellite communications.

This paper proposes a novel stacked tri-band circularly polarized antenna which has three independent ports. To obtain tri-band operation, a stacked three layers of microstrip antenna working at different frequency is presented. Each of them is fed by dual feed probes. The simulated results show that the antenna can cover Compass Navigation Satellite System CNSS B3 1.268 GHz, L band 1.615 GHz and S band 2.49 GHz. The proposed antenna has achieved a bandwidth of 3.1%, 6.8% and 2.3% at each band, respectively. It exhibits small axial ratio under 3dB in three bands for the CNSS applications. Details of the proposed antenna design and results for the obtained tri-band circularly polarized performances are presented and discussed.
