Abstract :
We have developed a low profile antenna for United States (U.S.) DBS mobile market. The antenna utilizes slotted array elements that radiate either right-hand or left-hand circular polarization tilted by 45deg off-broadside. The structure with limited required scan can render relatively low profile mobile antennas
