Abstract
In this letter, a four-element oscillator array using linearly polarized el ements is designed to generate circular polarization, The oscillators are c oupled in a loop arrangement with unidirectional coupling. The analysis of this new arrangement is developed and confirmed by circular polarization ra diation pattern measurements showing a wide axial ratio beamwidth both in p rincipal and diagonal planes.
