Abstract
A cavity backed conformal broadband compact hexagonal patch antenna is proposed that is fed using a co-axial probe. This horizontally mounted shorted antenna yields vertical polarization. The antenna yields 9.52% bandwidth centered around 1.05 GHz. The simulated results of electrical parameters of this antenna are in good agreement with measured ones. This vertically polarized antenna can be used for IFF airborne applications.
