Abstract
A circular polarized microstrip antenna with a working frequency of 6. 26 GHz was fabricated from YBCO HTS films. The transmission coefficien t and circular polarization ratio of the antenna at different external magnetic field B were measured at 4.2 K. The experimental results sho wed that its transmission coefficient and circular polarization ratio hardly changed with B up to 1 T. It is concluded that the field-induce d increase of surface resistance of YBCO films would not influence the microwave properties of this antenna at B less than or equal to 1 T a nd T = 4.2 K.
