Design of 2.6GHz-band Circularly Polarized Beam-Switching Array Antenna for Mobile Satellite Communications

Abstract

Recently, the demand for the mobile satellite communication is increasing, and many communication services are in the planning stage. Various types of vehicle antennas which can track the satellite have been studied. In this paper, we chose the circularly polarized slot antenna. We have described the beam-switching printed array antenna at 2.6GHz-band.
