In this Letter, a dual‐polarised aperture‐coupled microstrip patch antenna with low cross‐polarisation and high isolation is presented. A microstrip patch antenna is designed and fabricated to meet the multifunction phased array radar requirements. The proposed single element is fabricated and the measurement results along with simulation results have been presented, showing the performance of the designed single element. An input isolation of better than 50 dB and a cross‐polarisation level of <−30 dB are achieved in the measurements.
