Abstract :
The use of electromagnetic waves bearing orbital angular momentum in the radio frequency range is a growing subject, as well as the design of antennas enable to produce such waves. The aim of this paper is to present the characterization in an anechoic chamber, of a new type of antenna using a flat plate, designed to generate an electromagnetic wave bearing orbital angular momentum in the millimeter frequency band.
