Abstract
In this work circularly polarization diversity has been achieved by utilizing two Schottky diodes on low profile cavity-backed substrate integrated waveguide (CBSIW). In comparison with other studies in the literature, the size of antenna has been reduced to 0.54λg × 0.76λg by helping a 50-Ohm coaxial feed line. The impedance bandwidth, axial ratio bandwidth and antenna gain are improved to 10.02 %, 5.2 % and 7.68dBi, respectively. In addition, the proposed antenna can generate either a left-hand circularly polarized (LHCP) or a right-hand circularly polarized (RHCP) radiation. The developed antenna was fabricated and tested and the achieved results were in good agreement with the simulated one.
