Abstract :
The two arms of a metaspiral antenna are constructed using numerous conducting segments, where each segment has an inductor and neighboring segments are connected through a capacitor. This paper discusses the effect of the antenna size on the radiation characteristics. Circularly polarized radiation and linearly polarized radiation from this antenna are also discussed.
