impedance matching for circularly polarized microstrip patch antenna
How did you design the antenna ? If you did it on CST you probably gave waveguide excitation from the ports and your ports are probably Z=50 ohms. When you design antenna , you look at S11 measurements of the antenna.Generally you want your S11 to be below -10dB in band. -10 dB S11 means your VSWR=1.92 and Reflection Coefficient=0.316 . This also means you can have maximum impedance of 96.2 +0j Ohm on your antenna. So If your antenna satisfies S11<-10dB you are good with an 50 ohm SMA or N type connector attached after a 50 ohm microstrip line.
hi,
under the assumption that it is a printed patch then -
you can use this link for the patch design itself:http://www.emtalk.com/mpacalc.php
or https://www.pasternack.com/t-calcula...strip-ant.aspx
and this link for the microstrip line design: Khttp://www.emtalk.com/mscalc.php
for a circular-polarized dual feed patch the patch has to be square (not a rectangle)
