Abstract

In this paper, we proposed a novel single feed circularly polarized (CP) microstrip antenna with a I-shaped slot. By means of I-shaped slot technique, good axial ratio is obtained. In addition, to reduce the antenna size, four slits were cut on the patch. The optimal parameters of proposed antenna in this paper are achieved through HFSS software simulation. The results of simulation show that the proposed miniaturized CP antenna has an impedance bandwidth (return loss ≤10dB) get to 100 MHz (2.4-2.5 GHz), the 3dB axial ratio bandwidth get to 20 MHz (2.44-2.46 GHz), and the axial gain level get to 6.43 dBi.
