Popis: ObjectivesIn order to effectively broaden the beam width of the 3 dB axis ratio of a Beidou antenna, this paper proposes a slotted laminated microstrip patch antenna loaded with parasitic elements. MethodsThe Beidou dual frequency band feature is realized through a two-layer substrate structure. The bandwidth is widened by slotting. Circular polarized radiation is achieved by cutting corners at the edge of the patch. At the same time, L-shaped parasitic elements are loaded around the patch to broaden the 3 dB axial ratio beam width of the antenna.ResultsThe measured and simulated results are in good agreement. The relative bandwidths of the antenna in the Beidou B1 and B2 bands are 3% and 7.5%. The beam width of the 3 dB axis ratio can reach 180° and 176°, and the maximum gain can reach 6 dBi. In the Beidou receiver test, the number of antenna satellites can reach more than 17, and the positioning accuracy is within meters. ConclusionsThis paper proposes and validates a high-precision positioning dual band Beidou navigation antenna with wide axis ratio beam width. The results can provide references for the design of small Beidou navigation antennas.
