Abstract

The stacked conformal omnidirectional patch antenna, manufactured on cylindrical multilayered structure is presented. In order to obtain good wideband matching as well as omnidirectional azimuthal radiation pattern, the numerical simulation is used in conjunction with optimization procedure. The antenna was built and its gain and radiation pattern were measured. These measurements, including the measured radiation pattern with 4 dB omnidirectionality approved the idea of applying stacked patch configuration for wideband operation of circular cylindrical patch antennas.
