Radiation characteristics of finite-size circularly polarized corner antenna

The uniform geometrical theory of diffraction theory has been used to analyse the conditions at which circularly-polarized radiation is formed by a finite size corner reflector antenna with tilted halfwave dipole. The highest possible directive gain in the broadside direction of the antenna is determined. Other radiation characteristics and geometrical parameters of antenna required to provide circularly polarized radiation as a function of the dipole spacing at varying reflector width from 0.5 to 5λ and height from 0.5 to 2.4 λ are also calculated
