Abstract
A monopole antenna with circular polarization diversity and high isolation is proposed in this paper. The proposed antenna consists of two bent monopole antennas and a partial ground plane. Two monopole antennas are implemented on opposite planes with respect to the ground plane. The ground plane is a right-angled isosceles triangle, and the antenna is located at one end of the ground plane. Circular polarization (CP) characteristics are obtained using this structural asymmetry. In the proposed structure, the resonant frequency at S11 is controlled by the antenna length, and the null frequency at S21 (isolation) is controlled using the bending angle of the monopole and the distance between the two antennas. From the measured results, the CP operating bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 13.8% (1.76–2.02 GHz). The measured isolation is –50 dB at the resonant frequency and –20 dB within the operating bandwidth.
