Study of circularly polarized patch antenna for wireless Local Area Network access point application

Circular Polarized (CP) antennas are attractive for wireless communication applications because no strict orientation between the access point and the mobile unit are required. The purpose of this project is to make a comparative study between a CP patch antenna and a standard monopole antenna for W...
