Abstract

The antenna is very essential element of communication as it is used for a transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves. Today Communication devices such as mobile phones become very thin and smarter, support several applications and require higher bandwidth where the microstrip antennas are the better choice compare to conventional antennas. A compact single-feed circularly-polarized (CP) wide beam microstrip antenna is proposed for CNSS application. The antenna is designed with a double-layer structure, comprising a circular patch with two rectangular stubs along the diameter direction and a parasitic ring right above it. The resonance frequency and the CP characteristics are mainly controlled by the circular patch and the rectangular stubs, respectively. The vertical HPBW (half power beam width) could be widened by the parasitic ring.
