文摘Two novel spherical helical antennas are designed by projecting the planar equiangular spiral antenna onto hemisphere and partial sphere surfaces.Their radiation properties are analyzed by the moment method with curved basis and test function,and the curves of the voltage standing wave ratio(VSWR),gain,polarization and pattern that change with frequency are also given,respectively.It can be seen that the circular polarization band of the novel hemispherical helical antenna is broader.The gain curve of the partial spherical helical antenna is flatter and the structure is simpler.
