Abstract
Crosspolarisation characteristics of triangular microstrip antennas mounted on a cylindrical body are studied using a full-wave analysis. Numerical results of the far-zone copolarised and crosspolarised radiated fields at the TM10 mode for different cylinder radii and flare angles are calculated and analysed. A significant dependence of the crosspolarisation level on the cylinder radius and flare angle is observed. Details of the results are presented
