摘要：
A simple stacked subarray antenna with circular polarisation is presented. The antenna is based on a quasi-elliptical patch antenna fed with a 45 degrees offset microstrip line and a circular patch stacked on top of it via an air substrate. The single-element circularly polarised antenna is sequentially rotated into a four-element synchronous subarray resulting in improvement in antenna performance in terms of impedance bandwidth, gain and axial ratio. The antenna is experimentally verified and the results are reported.
