Abstract EN

A new dielectric rod antenna (DRA) is introduced to produce circular polarization (CP) over a wide frequency band without a complex feed network.

Along with the simulated results, measured results of the antenna prototype are presented, showing a 3 dB axial ratio (AR) CP bandwidth of 17.7%.

The radiation characteristics of the fabricated antenna are also demonstrated showing the measured gain of better than 6.2 dBi.

Moreover, the measured impedance bandwidth (VSWR ≤2) reaches 20.1%, from 8.75 GHz to 10.7 GHz, while the CP beamwidth (AR ≤3 dB) at the central frequency is measured over 120°.
