A Wideband Dual-polarized Slot Antenna
Design and investigation of a new configuration of wideband dual-polarized magneto-electric dipole (MED) antenna for 2G/3G/4G base station applications operating from 1.7 to 2.7 GHz is presented. Two pairs of single-polarized MED antennas are arranged adjacent to each other to produce ±45° dual-polarization. We developed wideband dual-polarized Tapered Slot Antenna operating at 0.65-9GHz. Single element of TSA is larger than the previously designed one in other researches, but developed antenna covers low frequency. It needs simple feeding network, and the number of divider can be small and insertion loss is a little. Abstract A wideband dual-polarized slot antenna loaded with artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) is proposed for WLAN/WIMAX and LTE applications. The slot antenna mainly consists of two pairs of arrow-shaped slots along the diagonals of the square patch. In this letter, we have proposed a dual-polarized planar circular slot antenna for wideband application. Two orthogonal polarizations were achieved by adopting different feeding mechanisms with.

Abstract
A new technique for designing wideband dual-polarized cavity-backed slot antennas is presented. The structure is in the form of a double-resonant, dual-polarized slot antenna backed by a shallow substrate integrated cavity with a depth of approximately one tenth the free space wavelength. The presence of the cavity behind the slot enhances the antenna's directivity and reduces the possibility of surface wave propagation in the antenna substrate when the element is used in an array environment. Moreover, the dual-polarized nature of this radiating element may be exploited to synthesize any desired polarization (vertical, horizontal, RHCP, or LHCP). The double-resonant behavior observed in this substrate-integrated cavity-backed slot antenna (SICBSA) is utilized to enhance its bandwidth compared to a typical cavity-backed slot antenna. A prototype of the proposed antenna is fabricated and tested. Measurement results indicate that a bandwidth of 19%, an average gain of 5.3 dB, and a wideband differential isolation of 30 dB can be achieved using this technique. The principles of operation along with the measurement results of the fabricated prototype are presented and discussed in this dissertation. The SICBSA is investigated as a candidate for use as an array element. A uniform two element phased array is demonstrated to locate the main beam from boresight to thirty degrees. The potential effects of mutual coupling and surface wave propagation are considered and analyzed.
