Abstract
A broadband dual polarization patch antenna double fed by an L-shaped probe and a near-resonant aperture is presented. The proposed antenna achieves a 1.5:1 standing wave ratio bandwidth of >20% at the two ports. Input isolation exceeding 25 dB has been obtained in the wide bandwidth. Thus, it can potentially be used as a base station antenna for cellular-phone networks
