A practical method, which based on eighth-mode substrate integrated waveguide (EMSIW), is investigated in this paper to design low-profile antenna with dual-sense circular polarization (CP) and enhanced bandwidth. First, an eighth-mode radiating cavities is presented and excited by single coaxial probe for size reduction and directional radiation. Then, two EMSIW antennas are placed symmetrically and a triangular parasitic patch is introduced between two EMSIW cavities. Attribute to the weakly coupled effect between the radiation aperture and triangular parasitic patch, dual-sense circular polarization characteristic and an additional resonance are acquired. When the triangular patch is transformed into a square parasitic patch, the current path on the parasitic patch is shortened, and a new resonance point is generated at 3.55 GHz. While the resonant mode of the two eighth-mode radiating cavities are almost unaffected and the CP bandwidth varies with the changed current path. Finally, a dual-sense CP EMSIW antenna with extended bandwidth and simple structure is designed and fabricated. The overall size of the fabricated prototype is only <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$0.57\lambda _{0} \times 0.54\lambda _{0} \times 0.02\lambda _{0}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> (<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\lambda _{0}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> is the free-space wavelength at 3.4 GHz). Measured impedance bandwidth is 10.5&#x0025; from 3.24 GHz to 3.60 GHz with an isolation up to 11.6 dB and a maximal gain better than 5.74 dBic in two ports is also achieved. Moreover, the characteristics of dual-sense CP and the cross-polarization suppression capability of up to 20 dB in the main beam are obtained in 3.48-3.60 GHz.
