Abstract :
A novel circularly polarised microstrip leaky-wave antenna is proposed and tested. Two linear polarised orthogonal dual-terminals feeding microstrip leaky-wave antennas are fed with equal amplitude and 90deg phase difference to generate the two orthogonal modes. The measured results show that the antenna achieves circular polarisation efficiently.
