Abstract :
This paper proposes a solution to control the polarisation of the ASA independently from the feeding point position. It also allows an easier impedance matching of the antenna, and thus compact size and broadband behaviour. The concept of a polarization diversity antenna, based on this antenna solution, is then proposed
