Abstract

In this paper, in order to fabricate the circularly polarized diversity system which will mitigate multipath fading, 5.8GHz band microstrip array antenna were designed and fabricated. These antenna were designed using Ensemble 6.0 program and the fabricated antenna were vertical and horizontal polarized antenna, left-handed circularly polarized antenna, and right-handed circularly polarized antenna. The designed antenna parameters included S11 and impedance characteristics of fabricated antenna were measured using Network Analyzer(8753ES). From the measurement results, the S11 for each polarization antenna at resonance frequency of 5.8GHz band was showed -38dB, -44dB, and -50dB respectively and it was similar to the simulation result, and also the impedance can be matched at $50{\Omega}$. In order to compare polarization characteristics, broadband measurement was also conducted in this paper.
