This communication presents a single-feed ultra-wideband circularly polarized (CP) antenna
with high front-to-back ratio (FBR). The antenna is composed of two orthogonally placed
elliptical dipoles printed on both sides of a substrate. To realize high FBR, a novel composite
cavity is also proposed and integrated with the presented crossed dipoles, which effectively
reduces the backlobe of the crossed dipoles. Simulation results are in good agreement with
the measured results that demonstrate an impedance bandwidth from 0.9 to 2.95 GHz …
This communication presents a single-feed ultra-wideband circularly polarized (CP) antenna with high front-to-back ratio (FBR). The antenna is composed of two orthogonally placed elliptical dipoles printed on both sides of a substrate. To realize high FBR, a novel composite cavity is also proposed and integrated with the presented crossed dipoles, which effectively reduces the backlobe of the crossed dipoles. Simulation results are in good agreement with the measured results that demonstrate an impedance bandwidth from 0.9 to 2.95 GHz (106.5%) and a 3-dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth from 1 to 2.87 GHz (96.6%). The measured FBR is about 30 dB across the whole global navigation satellite system (GNSS) band. Compared with other reported single-feed wideband CP antennas, the antenna has advantages such as a wider CP bandwidth and lower backlobe radiation.
