Design of Wideband Dual-Circularly Polarized Endfire Antenna Array on Gap Waveguide
Paper in proceeding, 2019

A wideband dual-circularly polarized (CP) linear antenna array is presented in this paper. Firstly, a dual-CP endfire antenna based on septum polarizer is designed as the element for the array. Secondly, the feeding network is realized by ridge gap waveguide. Then a 1×8 linear antenna array is built up by the elements. The proposed array antenna achieves wide impedance bandwidth of 44.6% with the reflection coefficient below -10 dB, the isolation between ports greater than 15 dB, and a wide 3-dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth of 46.2%.
