Wideband Low-Profile Dual-Polarized Antenna with AMC Reflector
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research Letters, Vol. 88, 15-20, 2020
Abstract
A wideband low-profile dual-polarized antenna based on the use of an artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) reflector is proposed. The AMC reflector consists of 9×9 square patches. In order to obtain wide impedance and gain bandwidths, the antenna consists of four printed dipoles: two dipoles are used as a radiator of horizontal polarization, and two dipoles are used as a radiator of vertical polarization. A simple excitation scheme without balun is used for dipoles feeding. A low profile of 0.068λL is realized (λL is the wavelength at the lowest operating frequency). Simulation and measurement results show that the proposed antenna has a 40% impedance bandwidth, a 40% 3-dB gain bandwidth, and a port isolation of less than -30 dB.
