Abstract
A new method for radiating dual or circular polarisation with a printed circuit antenna element is described. A square microstrip patch on one substrate is coupled to a pair of microstriplines on another substrate via two orthogonal, rectangular apertures in a common ground plane. Quadrature excitation of the system results in circularly polarised radiation.
