The present invention relates to a circularly polarized antenna and, more
particularly, to a compact circularly polarized antenna for transmitting
and receiving a circularly polarized signal. The circularly polarized
antenna comprises a substrate having an upper surface and a lower
surface; a signal distributor; an antenna for transmitting and receiving
the circularly polarized signal; and a plurality of support units. The
upper surface of the substrate comprises a plurality of slots. One end of
each slot overlaps with the respective ends of the other slots at a
central region. The lower surface of the substrate comprises a coupling
unit being electrically connected with the signal distributor, and the
center of the coupling unit corresponds to the central region.
