Abstract
In this article, a probe fed V-shaped dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) loaded with circular patches, is proposed for X band applications. A prototype was fabricated to validate the results. Circular polarization is achieved by the geometry of DRA integrated with the circular patches on its surface. These circular patches behave as a monopole antenna. To achieve circular polarization two orthogonal fields have been excited in the DRA, which are in time phase quadrature. Due to the symmetry of design, it shows dual polarization, both Left Hand Circular Polarization (LHCP) and Right Hand Circular Polarization (RHCP), in two orthogonal directions. The fabricated prototype exhibits wide impedance bandwidth of 7.85-10.1 GHz (25%) and circular polarization (CP) Bandwidth (BW) of 8.35-8.7 GHz (4%). Maximum measured gain of 4.8 dBi has been obtained in comparison with the simulated gain of 5.6 dBi. Applications of the proposed antenna include satellite communication, telemetry tracking and control, Synthetic aperture radar (SAR), weather radar, and military radar in X band. Directional CP performance is useful in designing a smart antenna and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
