Abstract
In this paper, a novel broadband CPW-fed circularly polarized (CP) monopole antenna is presented. The antenna is composed of a falcate-shaped patch and an improved ground plane. By adding an I-shaped stub in the ground plane, the impedance and axial-ratio (AR) bandwidths can be greatly enhanced. The antenna has been fabricated and measured. Good agreement is achieved between the simulation and measurement, which shows that the proposed antenna covers a 10-dB impedance bandwidth of 122% from 2.78 to 11.46 GHz, and a 3-dB AR bandwidth of 53.3% from 4.4 to 7.6 GHz.
