Abstract :
A dual-band counter circularly-polarized (CP) loop antenna is proposed, where the antenna has a single feed point. Analysis is performed to reveal the effects of a lossy antenna structure on the radiation characteristics. The amount of reduction in the maximum gain and radiation efficiency due to the losses is revealed.
