Abstract
Ultra-wideband communication in the frequency range from 3.1 to 10.6 GHz is popular for short range wireless networks. Designing a wideband antenna that covers the entire 7.5 GHz band is challenging, particularly if the antenna should be small, unobtrusive, and should effectively communicate with another antenna as their positions and orientations change. A miniaturized wideband circularly polarized Archimedean spiral antenna is developed in this study which is wideband and circularly polarized. Miniaturization and optimization techniques are introduced to enable an antenna size of $30 \text{mm} \times 30 \text{mm}$ and a thickness less than 0.5 mm.
