Abstract:
A GNSS RHCP stacked patch antenna with wide dual band, high efficiency and small size is made of a molded high-permittivity material, such as ceramics, with a patterned cavity in the dielectric substrate. The perforated cavities in the substrate reduce the effective dielectric constant, increase the bandwidth and efficiency. The high-order modes can be manipulated through the design of cavities.
Abstract:
A multiband microstrip antenna is provided. The antenna comprises of an inner ring radiator surrounded by an outer ring radiator on a first surface of a substrate. A feed network, on the second surface of the substrate, provides quadrature phases to feed posts to generate right hand circularly polarized (RHCP) signals.
Abstract:
A patch antenna with wider bandwidth, better axial ratio over the angle and controlled radiation patterns is provided, A central fixed patch antenna is surrounded with reactively or resistively loaded peripheral monopoles as surface- wave excited parasitic radiators. The surrounding monopoles may be printed on the same substrate as the patch, and may take a spiral (pin-wheel) shape.
