  • Abstract
    A nearly equilateral-pentagon microstrip antenna with four bent slots to perform compact CP radiation is experimentally investigated. Results show that the modified equilateral-pentagon microstrip antenna can be visibly reduced in size to be about 36 %. as compared to the nearly equilateral-pentagon microstrip antenna. Also, good CP radiation is observed.
