This paper presents the design, fabrication and measured results of the broadband microstrip array with a conical radiation pattern and the circular array composed of six square microstrip antenna elements. Each element antenna has the stacked structure with a parasitic element to achieve a broadband characteristic and a branch line quadrature hybrid is attached to it for the circular polarization. The design procedures and measured results of the scheme for obtaining the conical radiation pattern which is useful for the mobile communication via the satellite. Finally, the performance of the fabricated antenna is measured and compared with the theory.

This paper propose a new taegeuk shaped directional couper and verify the possibility of high power division rate in those directional coupler through the experiments. We took the taegeuk shaped structure in those proposed directional coupler to utilize a $3\lambda/4$ section of hybrid ring directional coupler actively, and calculated the branch admittances, which satisfied the condition of perfect matching and isolation in the center frequency, by even odd mode analyzing methodes. On the result, we knew that it can be realized a much higher power division rate than reported result in same circuit area within the producible resistance limit in the microstrip line, made the taegeuk shaped directional couplers with 0, 8, 16 dB power split ratio in the 10 GHz frequency using CGP - 502 plate, and confirmed the validity of theory through the experiments.
