摘要：
In this article, a dual circularly polarized high gain superstrate integrated X-band antenna is designed and analyzed for CubeSat applications. The proposed antenna consists of a metallic patch, multilayer space qualified printed circuit boards, and a dielectric superstrate with a high relative permittivity on top of the patch to establish a suitable resonance condition for high-gain operation. The driven patch is fed by a 3-dB hybrid coupler for the generation of dual (left hand circular polarization and right hand circular polarization) circular polarization. The antenna exhibits an impedance bandwidth of >18.5% (7.75-9.4 GHz) with a peak gain of >16 dBiC. The achieved antenna performance makes it suitable for CubeSat missions at X-band.
