摘要

A wideband single-fed circularly polarized (CP) stacked patch antenna with an L-shaped stub is presented. The CP antenna is made up of the bottom gradient microstrip transmission line, middle driven patch and top square radiation patch. The driven patch with an L-shaped stub and opening slot can achieve a wideband CP radiation which is different from a conventional patch. The presented CP stacked patch antenna maintains good directional radiation, while featuring wideband CP radiation. The final tested results indicate that the presented CP antenna has significant performance with a −10 -dB impedance bandwidth of 42.1% (4.26-6.53 GHz), a 3-dB AR bandwidth of 26.0% (4.36-5.66 GHz) and broadside peak gain of 8.6 dBic. Moreover, the fifth-generation (5G) N79 band (4.4-5.0 GHz) and 5G wireless local area network (WLAN) band (5.15-5.35 GHz) can be covered by the operating bandwidth of the presented CPantenna.
