Design of Temple Shape Slot Antenna for Ultra Wideband Applications
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research B, Vol. 47, 405-421, 2013
Abstract
A novel design of a temple shaped printed slot antenna for circular polarization applications is presented in this paper. The slot, half trapezoidal and half semi-circular in shape, is excited by a 50 Ω CPW feed terminated with a tuning stub. Modifications of the initial design for improving return loss and circular polarization characteristics are proposed and discussed. The antenna is very compact (40 mm x 35 mm) in size and simple to design. The final version of the antenna offers an experimentally measured impedance bandwidth of 108% i.e., from 2.75 GHz to 9.25 GHz. The 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth achieved is 51.6% i.e., from 4.6 GHz to 7.8 GHz. The antenna is further characterized by a peak gain of about 5 dB and a relatively stable radiation pattern in the useful band.
