Abstract :
Richmond\´s reaction integral equation method is used to design a rectangular microstrip patch to produce a circular polarization. A rectangular patch with the aspect ratio , in the range 1.015- 1.02 and corner fed by a microstrip line, produces circular polarization. For substrate with thickness cm, the nearly square patch gives maximum bandwidth.
