摘要：

A novel method for a single-feed circularly polarized (CP) loop antenna with both broad impedance bandwidth and axial ratio (AR) bandwidth is presented based on characteristic mode analysis (CMA). The circular polarization characteristics are generated by exciting two orthogonal degenerate modes (DMs) via single feeding simultaneously. The 90 degrees phase difference is achieved by loading the lumped inductors or capacitors. The wide bandwidth characteristics are generated by splitting a pair of DMs. Consequently, the two overlapping resonance points are split. The positions of feeding and loadings are determined with the aid of CMA. Compared with conventional methods, the presented method can simplify the feeding structure and provided a compact antenna. Based on this method, a loop antenna with two inductors is demonstrated for circular polarization application. The measured results show an impedance bandwidth of 47% and 3 dB AR bandwidth of 8.3% at 2.4 GHz wireless local area network (WLAN) bands. Both the simulated and measured results agree well.
