Abstract:
A dual-port dual-polarized compact microstrip antenna
for avoiding cross coupling between the two frequency bands is proposed
and analyzed. This antenna offers channel isolation better than 25 dB,
and is more compact compared to a conventional rectangular patch.
Analytical equations for calculating the resonant frequencies at both
ports are also presented. The theoretical calculations are verified using
experimental results

Abstract:
Experimental and simulated results for a dual-port
dual-polarized microstrip antenna are presented. The antenna excites
two orthogonally polarized resonant frequencies providing an isolation
of -30 dB between the ports. The patch geometry consists of
two circular arcs of different radii with their centers displaced by a
distance. This new design offers an area reduction of -70% coinpared
to it standard rectangular microstrip antenna with a reduction
in gain of 1.7 dB
