dc.description.abstract |
A new microstrip antenna element is described which exhibits polarization
agility. This is achieved by employing a T-slot radiator
which is driven by the edge fields of a balanced microstrip line. The
balanced line can support two propagating modes. namely. an even
mode and an odd mode, and be switching between these modes. the
orthogonal arms of the T-slot radiator are separately excited thus
forming orthogonally polarized radiated fields. A nucrostrip patch
antenna, which displays polarization agility using the sane mechanism,
is also described |
