Abstract
A corner fed electric microstrip dipole antenna consisting of a thin eleccally conducting, rectangular shaped radiating element formed on one surface of a dielectric substrate, the ground plane being on the opposite surface. The feed point is located at one corner of the antenna element and the input impedance is matched with a matching microstrip transmission feed line connected to the corner of the antenna. The length of the radiating element is greater than the width and determines the resonant frequency along the Y axis (i.e., length dimension) and the width determines the resonant frequency along the Z axis (i.e., width dimension). This antenna is capable of generating linear polarized radiation along the length thereof with minimal cross-polarization when the radiating element width dimension approaches one-quarter waveguide wavelength and less using a single corner fed element and single feed point. Elliptical polarization is also available with the rectangular radiating element.
