Abstract
A compact circularly-polarized slot spiral antenna with three couples of two-arm slot spiral elements is presented. The balun is not needed in the proposed array antenna by using a serial feeding approach. The monodirectional radiation pattern is achieved by means of a thin back cavity. The simulated and measured results show that the proposed array antenna has good performances of the axial ratio and radiation patterns.
