A dual-band circularly-polarized microstrip antenna is proposed, and the antenna for GPS is designed. The radiation characteristics of the dual-band circular polarization are achieved by installing one pair of L-shaped slits at all edges of the square patch. The impedance matching in the dual band is tuned by an L-probe feed. The proposed antenna is effective and useful in the design for dual-band circularly-polarized operation.
