Optimised feeding of dual polarised broadband aperture-coupled printed antenna
Abstract
The paper presents a new feeding technique for the dual polarized broadband aperture-coupled printed antenna in order to optimize the port decoupling and crosspolarization level. Experimental results are compared with those of a more classical feeding technique. With proper choice of symmetrical feed line and aperture geometries, the characteristics of dual polarization aperture stacked patch antennas are improved.
