A novel printed dipole antenna was designed for the L- band satellite communication system Inmarsat (Downlink: 1525{ 1559MHz, Uplink: 1626.5{1660.5MHz). Several structural parameters were experimentally studied with care to establish a design procedure. The measured results show that the impedance bandwidth for return loss below i10dB is about 170MHz and that the half-power bandwidth (HPBW) can be up to 110 - . The antenna can be used in high latitudes because of wider HPBW.
