Abstract
A one-point feed printed crossed dipole with a reflector antenna combi ned with a reactively loaded parasitic loop is proposed. The parasitic loop contributes mainly to the improvement of the antenna gain, and t he reactive loads contribute mainly to the improvement of the frequenc y response of axial ratio. Using the proposed antenna, a 4-element pri nted array antenna is constructed for land mobile satellite communicat ions to obtain highly efficient, compact, light weight array antenna.
