ABSTRACT:
A circularly polarized microcell antenna 10 that requires only a single feed-line to radiate circularly polarized electromagnetic energy therefrom. The antenna 10 comprises a reflector box 14 having a bottom 15 and side walls 17 to which an electrical connector 20 is mounted. The center conductor 24 of the connector 20 is electrically connected to a conductor bar 22 upon which a first dipole assembly is mounted at a designated one-quarter wavelength location. The shell of the connector 20 is electrically connected to the reflector box 14 upon which a second dipole assembly is mounted at a designated one-quarter wavelength location. Each dipole assembly comprises a primary dipole arm 52 and a secondary dipole arm 68 which are electrically connected by a phasing loop that introduces a 90.degree. phase shift between the primary dipole arm 52 and the secondary dipole arm 68. Thus, a single feed-line is capable of feeding both the primary and secondary dipoles so as to allow circularly polarized electromagnetic energy to radiate therefrom.
