Abstract :
A novel wideband circularly-polarized vertical patch antenna with compact integrated matching network has been presented. The proposed antenna has a wide axial ratio bandwidth (<3dB) of 30.7% and VSWR bandwidth (<-10dB) of 37.8%. The gain of the antenna is around 8dBi and the curve is very flat in the frequency band of our interest.
