Popis: This paper introduces a novel technique for inducing circular polarization in a single radiator through the implementation of a sequentially rotated feeding network. Analogous to the operational principles of sequentially rotated antennas employing multiple radiators, the creation of circular polarization (CP) with a solitary radiator becomes achievable through the distinctive phase and angular arrangement facilitated by the feeding network. This innovative approach not only results in a substantial reduction in complexity but also contributes to an overall reduction in antenna size, all while upholding commendable CP performance in terms of both axial ratio (AR) bandwidth and beamwidth.
