Abstract tri-band linear-to-circular polarization convertor is proposed which is composed of 3x3 metallic strips array printed on both sides of the dielectric substrate. The linear-to-circular polarization conversion is obtained by decomposing the linearly incident x-polarized wave into two orthogonal vector components of equal amplitude and 90° phase difference between them. The simulation results demonstrate that proposed structure can work at 12.62 GHZ, 15.03 GHz and 16.25 GHz with low loss and high polarization conversion ratio. Proposed structure achievesa right circularly polarized (RHCP) wave from 14.01GHz-15.25GHz and 16.25GHz-16.45GHz. The accumulative axial ratio bandwidth of 10.25% is obtained ranging from 12.0 GHz-18 GHz.
Keywords Axial ratio (AR), single-layer polarizer, circular Co and cross-polarization, quarter wave plate, met material.
