Abstract (en)

[origin: JPH03107203A] PURPOSE: To obtain a planar antenna capable of improving band width by a passive resonator, connected to a feeder through a hoop-like slot and maintaining symmetry in the case of circular polarization or double linear polarization. CONSTITUTION: A circular (or square) passive resonator 1 is connected to a feeder 4, through a loop-like slot 3 on a printed circuit of operational frequency. The slot 3 is connected between a conductor plate 2 and a disc-like conductor material area. Spacers 5 to 7, having low dielectric constants, are sealed between the feeder 4 and ground plates 8, 9 are especially the spacer 5 consists of a low dielectric constant material and is coated with a non-conductive protective material 13. The feeder 4 feeds a current to the slot 3 by an electromagnetic coupling, based on the quarter-wavelength stub of which terminal is opened, and the slot 3 is coupled with the resonator 1. Through this combination, a 20% wide pass band having a standing wave ratio <1.2 is obtained on a substrate in air, maximum radiation is in parallel with an arrow I, the ground plate 8 and the conductor 2 shield the radiation from the feeder 4, and radiation has good symmetry and a low intersecting polarization level.
