DUAL LINEAR POLARIZED FOLDED STACKED PATCH/MAGNETOELECTRIC ANTENNA FOR COMPACT ANTENNA ARRAY ARRANGEMENTS

Systems, devices, and methods related to dual linear polarized wideband antennas for compact antenna arrangements are provided. An example antenna structure includes a multi-layered printed circuit board (PCB); a folded magnetoelectric antenna element including a first portion disposed on a first layer of the multi-layered PCB and a first fold portion contiguous to the first portion and extending to at least a second layer of the multi-layered PCB; and a patch antenna element disposed on a third layer of the multi-layered PCB, wherein the first, second, and third layers are separate layers of the multi-layered PCB. The antenna structure further includes a first feeding port electrically coupled to the patch antenna element, and a second feeding port electrically coupled to the patch antenna element, where the first and second feeding ports are associated with different polarizations.
