In this paper, an anti-jamming GPS array antenna with seven antenna elements on the conformal structure is proposed for GPS applications by switching on/off the antenna ports. In this proposed antenna, when the received power is high, the antenna feeds are switched off to create null in the direction of jammer to reduce the jammer effect. This structure composed of seven patch elements where each element placed on special face of the structure. Whatever antennas be more directive, we can create deeper nulls. These specifications introduce this antenna as a good candidate for GPS applications to mitigate the jammer effects.

This paper presents a new unit to design dual linearly polarized reflectarray antenna at ku for satellite telecommunication. Two orthogonal sets of parallel dipoles are used for each polarization to achieve more degree of freedom in the design and wider phase variation in the unit cells, consequently. A 0.3m Reflectarray Antenna with two distinct beams is fabricated and measured in an anechoic chamber. The measurements have been carried out for both polarizations (X and Y ) in the azimuth and elevation planes. This antenna has x-polarized beam at (θ0=30º, ϕ0=90º) with 23.7 dBi gain and y-polarized beam at (θ0=30º, ϕ0=0º) with 24.2 dBi gain at Ku-band. The proposed design has one layer and simple structure compared to the references as well as dual band and dual polarization capabilities.
