Compact Bandwidth Enhanced Cavity-Backed Magneto-Electric Dipole Antenna with Outer Γ-Shaped Probe for GNSS Bands

In this paper, a wideband small cavity-backed magneto-electric (ME) antenna is proposed. This antenna is linearly polarized and designed to cover all the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) bands. It exhibits small external dimensions of 90 × 90 × 40 mm3 (0.34 × 0.34 × 0.15 λ3 at lowest freque...

Zusammenfassung:In this paper, a wideband small cavity-backed magneto-electric (ME) antenna is proposed. This antenna is linearly polarized and designed to cover all the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) bands. It exhibits small external dimensions of 90 × 90 × 40 mm3 (0.34 × 0.34 × 0.15 λ3 at lowest frequency) and achieves a wide impedance bandwidth of 40.5% (from 1.14 to 1.72 GHz) due to the excitation of a third resonance of the ME structure. It also provides a regular broadside gain of 5.2 dBi and stable radiation pattern in both E and H planes of the antenna.
