Low-Profile Dual Circularly Polarized Antenna Array for Satellite Communications in the X Band

Abstract: Abstract-A planar antenna is introduced that works as a portable system for X-band satellite communications. This antenna is low-profile and modular with dimensions of cm. It is composed of a square array of 144 printed circuit elements that cover a wide bandwidth (14.7%) for transmission and reception along with dual and interchangeable circular polarization. A radiation efficiency above 50% is achieved by a low-loss stripline feeding network. This printed antenna has a 3 dB beamwidth of 5 , a maximum gain of… Show more

“…Recently, circularly polarized (CP) microstrip antennas, in particular, have been attracting considerable attention for their usefulness in many applications such as for satellite communications [9] and in radio frequency identification (RFID) readers [10,11]. Microstrip-fed CP antennas may be classified as either single-feed or dual-feed, based on the number of feeders they employ; single-feed antennas are preferred, as they eliminate the need for 90 • hybrid couplers.…”

“…With the rapid development of modern wireless communication systems, dual-band Doherty power amplifier [17] and dual-band-or dual-circularly polarized antenna and antenna array [18][19][20] featured lower cost and compact size have drawn much attention recently. Therefore, the branch-line couplers as the key components of it and several functions are required simultaneously, such as dualband operation, arbitrary coupling levels, and inherent impedance transforming.…”
