  • Abstract
    A traveling-wave microstrip array antenna with circular polarization in presented. It uses a novel circularly polarized dual-feed radiating element. The element is a square microstrip patch with a chamfered corner. It is fed by microstrip lines, so radiating element and feed lines can be realized in a single layer. A five-element array is designed and built. Measured performance is presented.
