Abstract
The unidirectional radiation of spiral antennas mounted on a substrate requires the presence of a ground plane. In this work, we successively illustrate the impact of dielectric material and ground plane on the key metrics of a planar equiangular spiral antenna (PESA). For this purpose, a PESA mounted on several substrates with different dielectric properties and thicknesses is modeled and simulated. We introduce the tertiary current flowing on spiral arms when backed by a ground plane.
