A circularly polarized microstrip antenna for bi-static SAR onboard UAV has been investigated. The both sense

of the circular polarization left-hand circularly polarized (LHCP) and right-hand circularly polarized (RHCP) are

can be achieved on experimental and simulation. The 2x2 sub array antenna operated in 1.176 (L-band) with

novel proximity synchronous feed method has been designed, fabricated, and evaluated to show the characteristic

of the antenna. The measured result give the axial ratio bandwidth (<3dB) of about 28 MHz (2%), which

consistent with the simulated result of about 27 MHz (2%). These results satisfy the specification for our BiSAR

Keywords : Proximity synchronous feed, bi-static SAR, Circularly polarized antenna, UAV system installed onboard UAV.

  A bi-static synthetic aperture radar (BiSAR) has rapidly increased in the last years due to the ability operated in all-weather and both daytime and nighttime. Additional, the abilities in exploitation of extra reflective information of targets, reduced vulnerability for military application, forward-looking SAR imaging or increased radar cross section [1] has made BiSAR as a potential sensor in application. Recently, the signal from a Global Positioning System (GPS) can be used as a SAR sensor. A receiver collects both the reflected GPS signal from the ground surface and direct GPS signals on an airborne platform. Several measurements such as soil moisture measurement and determining of wind speed are succeeded done using this sensor [2, 3]. In application, some of the GPS receivers have been based on a linear polarization system. By receiving the Figure 1. Illustration of the bi-static SAR signal in linearly polarized antenna produce loss caused by the polarization misalignment between the

This feature is one received by both of CP antennas Left-Hand Circular reason why microstrip patch antennas have been polarization (LHCP) and Right-Hand Circular utilized for space borne communication antenna and

  satellites [7, 8]. However, as well known, a microstrip antenna can attain a narrow frequency bandwidth, especially axial ratio bandwidth generally in order of one-half percent at the expense of a low gain [9,10]. Some previous work has reported the enhancement of the axial ratio bandwidth of microstrip antenna [11]. By implementing many hybrids and power divider in the design, the antenna would be more complex geometry, heavier, high loss, and larger size [7]. One of the promising ways to produce the wider axial ratio bandwidth of CP antenna is sequential rotation technique on sub-array linearly polarized elements.

  In this research, a novel synchronous sub-array model to generate circular polarization using sequential rotation technique is presented. Different from previous models [12], the synchronous sub-array is designed with circular series feed method without using a power divider. The advantages of this feed method are the compactness and simplicity of the structure and easy to fabricate. In addition, by using a simple model can reduce the size of antenna and high loss in feeding network. This sub array antenna with novel proximity feeding model can be applied and satisfy for BiSAR onboard UAV requirement. On the next section, the specifications and target of the proposed antenna are introduced. The discussion about circularly polarized antenna will be given in Sec. 3, and the antenna configuration in Sec. 4. The parametric study and performance of the proposed antenna will be explained in Sec. 5 and Sec. 6, respectively. Finally, the conclusion about this research is pointed out on the Sec. 7. 2. SPECIFICATION AND TARGET In this research, the sub-array antenna is operated on frequency center 1.176 GHz (L-band). The input impedance should be fixed match by resulting in the return loss smaller than 10 dB in the working frequency range. To ensure the radiation is circularly polarized, the maximum axial ratio (AR) is 3 dB in the targeted direction (Azimuth angle 5-90 and elevation angle 360). The antenna also should be keep smaller and light weight to satisfy the UAV payload. The targeted minimum gain of the antenna is set to 16 dBic at the center working frequency. The detail specifications and target of the antenna for BiSAR onboard UAV is sown in the Table 1.

  Tabel 1. Specifications and Target Parameters Specifications Frequency center (GHz) 1.176 Pulse Bandwidth (MHz)

  1.5 Typical at 1.176 Axial Ratio (dB) ≤ 3 Antenna Gain (dBic) ≥16 Azimuth angle coverage 5-90 degree

CIRCULARLY POLARIZED ANTENNAS Generally, the polarization of an electromagnetic wave is defined as the orientation of its electric field vector. If the vector appears to rotate with time, then the wave is elliptically polarized. The ellipse so described may vary in ellipticity from a circle to a straight line, or from linearly to circularly polarize. Hence, the Circular polarization is a limiting case of the more general condition of elliptical polarization. In a circularly polarized, the plane of polarization rotates in a circle making one complete revolution during one period of the wave and can be obtained by combining two orthogonal linearly polarized radiating elements. The other special case is the easier to understand linear polarization. A linear polarized antenna radiates wholly in one plane containing the direction of propagation.

  A circularly polarized element can also be generated by implementing a single feed with some perturbation on the radiator element.

  Figure 2. Polarization Parameters The axial ratio (AR) is a very important characteristic for circularly polarized antennas. Generally, the polarization of an electromagnetic wave can be categorized by using AR parameter. Axial ratio is the ratio of the major axis to the minor axis of the polarization ellipse which commonly stated in units of dB. Based on Figure 2, the ellipticity as a function of AR is defined as. R 1 cot

  (1) Here, is ellipticity angle (-45 45 ) and R is the value of axial ratio. The value of axial ratio can be formulated as [5]

  (2) ON OM E E length axis or length axis major R min max min ICOMSET Physics

  Where OM (Emax) and ON (Emin) are the maximum and minimum of the electric field amplitude, respectively. The R is equal to 1 for perfect circular polarization and infinite for linear polarization. In the between of 1 and infinite, electromagnetic wave is classified as elliptical polarization. The axial ratio for pure linear polarization is infinite, because the orthogonal components of the field are zero.

  The circular polarization sense can be right-hand and left-hand depends on the vector is turning clockwise (CW) or counter clockwise (CCW) in relation to the time. In term of polarization sense, the sign of R is positive for RHCP and negative for LHCP. 4. ANTENNA CONFIGURATION The configuration of the antenna and its parameter's design are shown in Figure 3. The antennas consist of four circular patches (2 x 2) with radius r and fabricated on two layers substrate. The top layer substrate is for radiator element and the bottom substrate is for the synchronous feed. Each substrate having thickness (h) 1.6 mm, conductor thickness tc

  03Lamda, was chosen and overall size (W x L) of the antenna was 20x20 cm2. The method of moment (IE3D simulation software) with a finite ground plane model was employed to achieve the optimum parameters of the antenna design. The detailed optimum parameters of the antenna are r =5 mm, R=11 mm, r=4 mm, w=5 mm, w1= 2 mm, w2= 2 mm w3= 2 mm and w4= 2 mm. A SMA connector is used to feed the microstrip line on the edge of the substrate. Several types of the previous sub array with synchronous feed are reported. However, the feed method is complex and need more junction and power divider. By implementing many junctions and power dividers make the size of the antenna become larger and heavy. Therefore, by implementing a compact synchronous feed method as sown in Figure 4, the design and fabrication of the antenna are made easier and smaller. In order to design the antenna in LHCP the feed is started from the right element of the radiator and continue to next element in a form of circular Figure 4.

  A novel compact synchronous feed has been described for the generation of circular polarization (CP) radiation. The simulation has done to achieve the optimum performance in studying the proposed antenna. The measured impedance bandwidth (<- 10dB) and 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth has been attained around 60 MHz, and 28 MHz, respectively. The maximum measured gain is fairly high of about 7.11 dBic in the operating band (1.176 GHz). In general, numerical analyses using the method of moment can lead to a good agreement with experimental results. The slight differences of antenna performance between the simulation and measurement are probably due to imperfection during the fabrication and measurement processes.
