Original Abstract Submitted
An antenna is provided that includes a dielectric-filled cavity having a bottom surface, a top surface, and a rectangular perimeter. A round metal layer faces the bottom surface whereas a resonator metal layer faces the top surface. A plurality of metallic vias is arranged about the rectangular perimeter to couple a perimeter of resonator layer to the ground layer. An opening divides the resonator layer into a first pair of resonators and into a second pair of resonators. Within each pair of resonators, one resonator is configured for operation according to a first linear polarization whereas a second resonator is configured for operation according to a second linear polarization that is orthogonal to the first linear polarization.
