Problem for Chapter 2 Analyze and calculate the inner and outer field expression for circular microstrip patch antenna? Design the size and feed point location (back feeding) for both rectangular and circular microstrip patch antenna with the parameters: f0=5GHz; dielectric constant=4.5; h=1.8cm; Chapter 3 Circularly Polarized MAs In general, an antenna will radiate an elliptical polarization, which is defined by three parameters: axial ratio, tilt angle and sense of rotation. When an axial ratio is infinite or zero, the polarization becomes linear with the tilt angle defining the orientation. Sense is not applicable in this case. The quality of a linear polarization is usually indicated by the level of the cross polarization. For a unity axial ratio, a perfect circular polarization results and the tilt angle is not applicable. The axial ratio is generally used to specify the quality of the circularly polarized waves. Chapter 3 Circularly Polarized MAs Antennas produce circularly polarized waves when two orthogonal field components with equal amplitude but in phase quadrature are radiated. Various MAs are capable of satisfying these requirements. They can be classified as resonator and traveling-wave types. A resonator type antenna consists of a single patch antenna that is capable of simultaneously supporting two orthogonal modes in phase quadrature; A traveling-wave type of antenna is usually constructed from a microstrip transmission line. It generates circular polarization by radiating orthogonal field components with appropriate phasing along discontinuities in the traveling-wave line.
