In this paper, singly fed circularly polarized nearly-square patch antenna for receiving S-DMB is presented. It used teflon substrate of relative dielectric constant ${\in}_{\gamma}=2.2$ and the sire is $40{\times}40{\times}15[mm]$. Experimental results of fabricated antenna show that input return loss and axial ratio are about 22MHz, 25MHz at the center resonant frequency, respectively. And fabricated LNA has gain of 27.5 [dB], NF of 1.27 [dB], input return loss of -15.4 [dB] and output return loss of -18.9 dB, respectively. Simulation results and experimental results are good agreements. This proposed antenna is well able to handheld gadgets for receiving S-DMB.
