Abstract

A low-profile triple-band, dual-mode and dual-polarization antenna is proposed in this paper. An annular interdigital slot etched on the top conductor layer of the antenna is employed as a radiator. Through adjusting the location of coaxial probe, three operating modes TM₁₁, TM₀₂, and TM₁₂ of the antenna are excited simultaneously. Two patch-like radiation patterns and one monopolar radiation pattern at three different frequencies are obtained. In addition, circularly polarized (CP) property for TM₁₁ and TM₁₂ modes is achieved by employing a 45° inclined rectangular slot at the center of the antenna. To validate the properties, a prototype is fabricated and measured. The results illustrate that this antenna is attractive in wireless communication systems for its simple structure and multifunction.
