Formation of horizontally polarized radiation in a cylindrical microstrip antenna

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We consider the problem of excitation of cylindrical microstrip antennas with complex-shaped radiators, which are capable of producing radiation mainly with horizontal polarization. The problem is solved by the method of moments in the spectral domain by using the piecewise-specified basic functions. The radiating systems under consideration are a rectangular-cylindrical radiator with a matching coplanar transition and two pairs of coupled loop strip radiators with slots located in the azimuthal plane. The radiators are excited by a cylindrical microstrip line, and the line, with a delta generator. Coupling of the radiating system and the microstrip line is achieved. The possibility to produce the horizontally polarized radiation, which is isotropic in the azimuthal plane, is demonstrated.
