Abstract:

© 1967-2012 IEEE. This paper presents a new dual-band dual circularly polarized (CP) high gain patch antenna array for vehicle satellite communications. The array consists of 16 linearly polarized dual-band elements backed with a new frequency-selective-surface (FSS)-integrated polarization rotation ground. The polarization rotation ground is located underneath the array, which not only acts as a reflector to increase the array boresight gain but also enables the array's dual CP radiation. The electromagnetic (EM) waves reflected by the ground retard either 90° or 270° with respect to the EM waves of the array directly radiated to the upper sphere at two frequency bands, leading to the dual-band dual CP radiation. This is totally different from many of the former counterparts which are based on either the perturbation on the stacked patch or external feeding network. Measured results show the -10-dB impedance bandwidth is from 7.8 to more than 8.5-GHz for X-band and from 14 to 15.3-GHz for Ku-band. The 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth is from 8.15 to 8.35-GHz for the lower band (right-hand CP) and from 14.2 to 14.8-GHz for the higher band (left-hand CP), respectively.
