The effect of using a non‐uniform reactive impedance surface (RIS) on the circular polarisation performance of a planar antenna is investigated. It is shown that a very wide axial ratio (AR) bandwidth can be obtained, especially when the RIS is combined with parasitic strips. This result is only possible, thanks to the fact that the RIS is non‐unif...

A novel dual-band uniform circular array (UCA) is presented to generate vortex electromagnetic waves. The proposed antenna is designed to operate in C- and X-bands with center frequency of 5.8 GHz and 10 GHz, respectively. To construct a shared-aperture structure, two UCAs operating in different frequencies are combined in a common aperture with di...
