  • Abstract
    The radiation characteristics of an antenna consisting of two pairs of bowtie-shaped grids are analyzed. A circularly polarized beam in the broadside direction is obtained when the four input terminals are appropriately excited. An improvement (reduction) in the cross-polarized component is realized and discussed.
