Abstract

A compact circularly polarised printed slot antenna operating at 2.45GHz for rectenna and RFID applications is reported. The antenna consists of an arrow headed modified cross slot printed on the ground plane of a dielectric substrate. The slot is fed by using a microstrip transmission line etched on the other side of the substrate. The size of the antenna is 40x40x1.6mm3. By employing an arrow headed modified cross slot structure, the proposed slot antenna exhibits a measured -10dB impedance bandwidth of 14.4% (2.25-2.6 GHz) and a measured 3dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth of 8.23% (2.38-2.58 GHz)..
