Planar antennas for satellite reception

Abstract
Direct broadcast satellite (DBS) reception requires a circularly polarized antenna with high gain and low axial ratio. Recently, various types of planar antennas have been studied and developed for DBS reception in the 12-GHz band. A summary is presented of properties and classification of planar antennas both commercialized and reported. The basic configurations, working principles, and performance of various planar antennas are described.
