Abstract

This paper introduces a multiband low-profile antenna by developing a simple MS and a hybrid feeding. The MS is reused as both a radiator for the y-polarized antenna and an artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) reflector for the x-polarized antenna, resulting a low profile of 0.1 λ at 3.5 GHz through effective stacking. The y-polarized antenna takes the form of an MS-based grid-slotted patch with a wide band of 4.03-5.63 GHz (1.6 GHz, 33.1%), while the x-polarized antenna is configured as a dipole with dual bands of 3.36-3.70 GHz (0.34 GHz, 9.6%) and 5.14-5.58 GHz (0.44 GHz, 8.2%). Defected ground structure (DGS) is introduced to achieve impedance matching and generate a band notch for the dipole antenna. To address the misalignment of radiation patterns in the HF band of the x-polarized antenna, an asymmetrical slot is employed for pattern correction by 11o © 2024 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc..
