Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1968159A1] A circularly polarized patch antenna assembly having a relatively compact volume includes a substrate, a radiation metal piece, a grounded metal piece and a signal-inputting body. A plurality of metal pieces in a form of elongate stripe extends from four sides of the grounded metal piece, thereby to reduce the resonant frequency. The metal pieces are adhered on the side face of the substrate, so that the metal piece on one side face is arranged diagonally with respect to the metal piece on the opposite side face. When the resonant frequency of the antenna is to be reduced, the position and the area of the metal piece can be adjusted but the increased area of the metal piece cannot be larger than a half area of the side face of the substrate. Alternatively, the length of the metal piece can be increased.
