A novel wideband circularly polarized (CP) antenna with a stair-shaped dielectric resonator and an open-ended slot ground is introduced. By adjusting parameter values of the hybrid structure, wideband CP characteristics can be realized. In order to improve the impedance matching and enhance the axialratio (AR) bandwidth, the open-ended slot is also inserted in the ground plane. The antenna is fully studied and manufactured. Measured results show that the proposed antenna has 10-dB return loss of 71.7% (3.844-8.146 GHz) and 3-dB AR bandwidths of 46.0% (4.15-6.63 GHz), respectively, and a peak gain of 3.9 dBic. In addition, more than 92% antenna radiation efficiency is obtained.
