In this paper, a new wideband circularly polarized (CP) antenna with a single-layer metasurface (MT) is developed. The single-layer MT consists of 4 × 4 truncated corner square patch cells with corner-cut square slots. Compared to the single truncated corner square patch, introducing corner-cut square slot can increase the design flexibility by changing the slot size for a wider CP operating bandwidth. A slit-shaped aperture coupling structure and a microstrip fed structure are placed together to provide coupling energy to the MT. Note that such MT and slot antenna share the same reference ground plane, and there is no air gap among the overall CP antenna structure. This design could easily make the profile low and the structure compact. The tested results reveal that the presented antenna features a broad 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth (18.2%, 5.25 ~ 6.3 GHz) and a wide −10-dB impedance bandwidth (19%, 5.25 ~ 6.35 GHz), which is very suitable for wireless communication systems with low-profile and wideband requirements.
