Abstract
A single-layer, polarization adjustable circular-polarization (CP) antenna with four arc-like slots has been designed for GPS L2 band. The created antenna uses four arc-like slots to tune the phase difference to form a CP antenna, where the arc-like slots with a specific size relationship are etched on the patch. By adjusting the radius of the arc-like slots, Left-handed -circular-polarization (LHCP) and Right-handed-circular-polarization (RHCP) can be realized easily with simple structure. Simulations and optimizations show that the constructed CP-antenna has a good axial-ratio bandwidth of 10 MHz and impedance-bandwidth of 40 MHz and 30 MHz for LHCP and RHCP application.
