Abstract

A planner geometry triple-band circularly polarized (CP) antenna is proposed for wireless applications. The antenna consists of rectangular strips on the upper surface along with rectangular slots on the ground plane. The 3dB axial-ratio of the antenna is achieved through a reformed ground plane. Through the aid of these features, a small, compact wideband circularly polarized antenna is fabricated with an area of 25×25×1.02 mm³. The -10 dB impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 8.2% (2.4-2.58 GHz), 33% (3.2-3.9 GHz), and 41.1% (5.2-7.8 GHz). While the 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth achieved by the proposed antenna is 89.7% (2.17-5.8 GHz). The designed antenna is suitable for wireless applications such as WiMAX, WLAN, ISM, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi.
