Abstract :
proposed design comprises good properties regarding the bandwidth, radiation pattern, polarization purity and overall size which is smaller than 95 mm (λ/2 in free space at 1.575 GHz), thus adequate for array implementation. The future work will have focus on reduction of losses and improvement of gain in lower band by suppressing the crosstalk between ports.
