By adjusting the value of varactor diode on the QLQC feed network,both the wideband LP and CP dielectric resonator antennas( DRA) modes can be achieved. By selecting a different feed port,left-and right-handed CP conversion can be realized.It is found that the 10 dB impedance bandwidth of the LP and CP modes are 10. 1% and 44. 9%,respectively.For the CP mode,a very wide 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth of 37. 7% can be obtained which is much larger than that of the microstrip patch counterpart( 3. 8%). It is worth mentioning that the wideband CP DRA has a stable broadside radiation pattern across the whole operating band where the boresight gain is larger than 3 dBi.展开更多
