Abstract :
A novel triple-band circular polarization stacked microstrip antenna is presented. The proposed antenna operates at L band when transmitting left-hand circular polarization signal, and L2 band of GPS and S band when receiving right-hand circular polarization signals. Stacked structure carries out compactness of the antenna and special dual-feed structure has guaranteed good circular polarization performance, what´ s more, the extra cone-pedestal greatly enhances gain at low elevation angle.
