Abstract :
In this paper, a family of antennas for various GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) applications is presented. The distinctive feature of the designs consists in using a broadband square radiator with four triangular legs and a miniaturized four-point circular polarization feed network composed of quarter-circular rings. The concept allows the compact design of GNSS antennas with excellent characteristics, as the instanced examples demonstrate.
