A high-gain circularly polarized (CP) magnetoelectric dipole (ME-dipole) radiating element is demonstrated at a millimeter-wave (MMW) 5G band of 37-43.5 GHz. Each ME-dipole radiating element, consisting of two pairs of ring-shaped and L-shaped metal posts is excited by a cross-shaped substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) coupling slot to achieve CP radiation.

A wideband high-efficiency circularly polarized (CP) dual-coil antenna array is presented for 60-GHz applications in this letter. The proposed CP dual-coil antenna is composed of a resonant substrate-integrated cavity (SIC) and a pair of centrally symmetrical coils, which are fed differentially by a substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) coupling slot. A novel sequential rotation feeding technique is introduced to enhance the axial ratio (AR) and impedance bandwidths of both the 2 × 2 subarray and the 4 × 4 array.

In this paper, a broadband left-handed circularly polarized (LHCP) corrugated horn antenna using a dielectric circular polarizer is proposed. Circularly polarized (CP) waves are generated by inserting an improved dovetail-shaped dielectric plate into the circular waveguide. Compared with the traditional dovetail-shaped circular polarizer, the proposed improved dovetail-shaped circular polarizer has a wider impedance bandwidth and 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth.

The metasurface is composed of ultrathin single-layer ground-backed Jerusalem cross structure, which can provide complete and independent control of the orthogonally linearly polarized incident waves with greatly simplified design process. As proof of concept, a metasurface is designed to generate vortex beams with different topological charges under orthogonal polarizations operating at 15 GHz.
